Answer:

B

Explanation:

In linear functions, both x and y have a an exponent of 1.
Here, the only function that has both x and y having an exponent of 1 is answer choice B, y + 7 = 5x meaning that it is linear.

The other functions contain exponents on either x or y which will result in some sort of curve hence making them non linear.
