Answer:

Option C


y=-10x

Explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form
y/x=k or
y=kx

In a direct variation the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m

In this problem we have


k=m=-10

the equation of the line is equal to


y=kx

substitute the value of k


y=-10x
