Answer:

D. The graph of this equation can be any straight line.

Explanation:

Because A ≠ 0, it can be any number above or below 0.

Because B = 0, the line can only be a horizontal line. The line can be at any point on a graph, though, because A does not have any specific number that it equates to.

I hope this helped!
