The graph of the function is missing and so i have attached it alongside the options.
Answer:
B & C are correct.
Explanation:
From the attached graph, we can see that at interval 2, the line is falling down and not rising.
This means that the function is decreasing because y is decreasing while x is increasing.
Also, when both x and y are increasing, the slope is positive but when one is increasing and the other is decreasing like we have here, it means the slope is negative.
Thus, the function is decreasing and the slope is negative.
