Answer: (a)

Explanation:

Given

The given graph is y=-2x+6 and it changed to y=3x+2

The slope of the graph determines the steepness

Slope changes from -2 to 3. So, latter graph is more steeper.

Also, y intercept is obtained by putting x as 0

Y intercept changes from 6 to 2 i.e. decrease of 4 units

Hence, option (a) is correct.
