Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation: Substitute four and zero in each of the choices and see if the sum becomes negative six and two, respectively. If it does, then the equation represents the line.

Third equation substitution:

x = 4

y = -2(4) + 2

y = -8 + 2

y = -6

x = 0

y = -2(0) + 2

y= 0 + 2

y = 2

Therefore, the answer is C.

Note: I skipped to the third equation because the other equations are false.
