Answer:

Decreasing, 75, -2

Explanation:

The aquarium is emptying because of the negative slope indicating the decreasing if value over time.

How much water you start with is whatever the y-intercept value is, in this case 75.

Rate of change is your slope, which is -2, or you're losing 2 gallons of water/hour.
