Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Property of a proportional relationship,

y ∝ x

y = kx

Where 'k' is the proportionality constant

This equation represents a line with no y-intercept.

Therefore, all the lines having y-intercept will not show the proportional relationship.

From the graph attached,

Green and pink lines have no y-intercepts.

Therefore, green and pink lines represent the proportional relationship.

Option D is the correct option.
