Answer:

The answer is c.

Explanation:

This is because the slope is a negative, and since letter a, has a positive slope, it's out of the picture. Just by the looks of b, you can tell that the why intercept isn't 5. It looks like its y-intercept is 0. Letter d, also doesn't have a positive y-intercept so it's also out of the picture. Which leaves letter c. It has a positive slope and it looks like it has 5 as a y-intercept.
