Refer to the attached image.

Plot the given points of function g(x) that is (-2,4) , (-1,1) and (0,-2).

Join the line through these plotted points.

We observe that the lines f(x) and g(x) intersect each other.

The point of intersection of lines f(x) and g(x) is (-1,1)

(-1,1) is a coordinate with negative x co-ordinate and positive y co-ordinate.

Therefore, Yes, lines f(x) and g(x) intersect with a negative x co-ordinate.

Therefore, Option B is correct.
