Answer: B. It would be shifted up.

Step-by-step explanation: We are changing the last number only. This number determines where the y-intercept is, which is on the vertical axis. Since the number increases by 4, the y-intercept would be shifted up by 4, without changing the slope. Therefore, the answer would be B. It would be shifted up.
