Answer:

A

Explanation:

The line has to go down when x move to the right due to the negative slope. So B and C cannot be right.

The line has to pass through (0,3), that's the y-intercept, so A and D can still both be right.

For every step to the right, the line has to move 2 down (slope -2). Only A does that. D moves 0.5 down for every step to the right.
