Answer:

D. Exponential

Explanation:

When we graph the points and join them by lines, we get a curve that is concave up with no maximum or minimum.

Also note that for the points (x,y) in the curve, it holds that
y \longrightarrow 0 \quad \text{as} \quad x \longrightarrow \infty and
y>0 which tells us that model cannot be linear or quadratic.
