Answer: Virtual image

Explanation:

- The light rays never converges, because the light rays crosses the point where all the rays accumulate, taking it away from the lens

- The virtual image that is produced, is positioned in front of the lens

- Light when passes through a concave lens, it is refracted away from the focal point making an image look smaller

- When light passes through a convex lens, it is refracted towards the focal point making the image look bigger
