Answer:

C. Negative

Explanation:

The line is not horizontal or vertical, therefore we the slope cannot be zero or undefined.

This leaves us with either positive or negative...

A positive slope goes from the lower left corner (Quadrant 3) of the graph up to the upper right (Quadrant 1).

A negative slope goes from the upper left corner (Quadrant 2) of the graph down to the lower right (Quadrant 4).

Since this line goes from the upper left corner to the lower right, it has a negative slope
