The slope is obviously negative

will.h · Answer

you may pick 2 points and use the slope formula to see the slope 

Slope = y2-y1/x2-x1

jiteshmeghwal9 · Answer

The y-intercept is 0 which implies line is of form y=mx

agreed jit

prominer10000 · Answer

So would it be D?

will.h · Answer

serious!
i gave you a hint and told you the slope is negative

prominer10000 · Answer

Oh sorry, it would be A.

prominer10000 · Answer

Right?

will.h · Answer

let's see shall we ?
pick 2 point 
(-4,1) (4,-1) 

slope = y2-y1/x2-x1
slope = -1 - 1/4+ 4
Slope = -2/8
Slope = -1/4
