Allen, have you read your course material (textbook, online learning materials, etc.) for background information on how to respond to this problem?  Hint:  Look up "regression line."  One of those lines in your illustration represents the "regression line" for the data given.  Once you've done some background reading on this, and type out some of your thoughts regarding which of the four answers is correct, I'd be glad to get involved further in helping you.  We don't "troll" for answers here on OpenStudy.
