Choose the correct answer
The blue line is a straight line, therefore it remains constant.
Let's note that the red line is rising because it starts in the negative part (negative values) and rises to the positive part (positive values).
Therefore, the correct answer is D.
Answers B and C are correct
Which statement best describes the graph below?
Look at the line from left to right. If it goes up, it's increasing (positive slope). If it goes down, it's decreasing (negative slope). If it stays level, it's constant (zero slope).
A horizontal line is constant because it has the same y-value everywhere. No matter what x-value you pick, y never changes - that's why the slope is zero!
No! A straight line has only one slope throughout its entire length. It's either increasing, decreasing, or constant - never a combination.
Steepness tells you how fast the line increases or decreases, but doesn't change whether it's increasing or decreasing. A steep line still follows the left-to-right rule!
Even though the red line starts below the x-axis, it's still rising from left to right. The key is the direction of change, not where it starts or ends.
