Answer:

A: true

B: true

C: false

D: true

E: true

Explanation:

A: always true, m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept (starting value)

B: always true, m is always constant within the equation

C: false, initial value can be 0, e.g. in the equation y=5x, the initial value is 0

D: always true, being a line is part of the definition of linear

E: true, if the equation is in the form x = [a number], it is a vertical line where the x value is always the given number
