Answer:

The answer is option C

Explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + b

where

m is the slope

b is the y intercept

From the question

Slope / m = 14

So using the equation of a line given using a point

That's

y - y1 = m( x - x1)

the equation of the line using point

(0 ,- 2) is

y + 2 = 14( x - 0)

Hope this helps you
