Answer:here is something to keep in mind.

when there is a downward slope, the slope will ALWAYS have a negative slope. even if it is above the x-axis. negative slopes will tend to go from positive y-axis to negative y-axis

so personally would have to go with -4

because the x-axis is by 4 each time. and this slope is going downward.

your answer will be D
