The answer to this question is C because the larger the slope the line gets steeper

Hi there! The answer is C. y = 4x + 5.

To make the line steeper, we need to change the slope of the line, which is positioned before the variable x. In order to end up with a steeper line, the slope must be bigger (and therefore represented by a larger number). The steepest line in the answers is C.
