Firstly the line is decreasing that means the slope is negative


& the only equations where the slopes are negative are


y= - x + 6 & y = -2x + 6

Replacing x by some value, you will find that y= -2x +6 best fit this scatterplot

Answer will be C y=-x+6
Why?
The line or scatterpoints are going down from left to right which means it is a negative slope
As you can see one point is at 1,5 and the other is at 0,6 which means the slope goes down by 1
Giving you -x
What is the y intercept?? It is 6 so that completes the line equation
Y=-x+6 hope that helps
