Answer:

A

Explanation:

The equation of the line that passes through the points (-9,-7) and (-12,-2) is

y = -5/3x-22

and

equation of the line that passes through the points (1, 9) and (6, 6) is

y = -3/5x+48/5

clearly it is not the same line,

$(-5)/(3).(-3)/(5) \\eq -1$ (lines are not perpendicular)

$(-5)/(3)\\eq (-3)/(5)$ (not parallel)
