I hope I'm right but it's the top right one.

\text{Consider the given scatter plot for the data.}\\ \text{we need to find the line which approximate best the data.}\\ \\ \text{From the given plots, we can see that only the line given in graph (ii)}\\ \text{best approximates the given data.}\\ \\ \text{Because the line connects the initial and final points. And the number}\\ \text{of data point below and above the line are approximately equal.}


\text{while on the other linear graphs, the data points below and above the line}\\ \text{has a big diffrence.}\\ \\ \text{so the line given in graph (ii) is a linear model for the data.}
