Answer:

The top left table.

Explanation:

An initial value is the y-intercept, which is where the function touches the y-axis. If the initial value is 3, the coordinate must be (0,3). This rules out the both tables on the right.

The rate of change is how much the function's y values increase or decrease. If the rate change is 4, the y values increase by 4 each unit, which matches the top left table.
