for the line that goes up - it cuts the y-axis at - 5 (p = -5)

when we take 2 points we go from one to the other by going to the right of 1 unit and going up of 3 units (slope m : 3/1)

=> y = 3x - 5

and

for the line which goes down - it cuts the y-axis in +2 (p=2)

when we take 2 points we go from one to the other by going to the right of 2 units and going down of 1 unit (slope m : -1/2)

=> y = -1/2x + 2

=> y + 1/2x = 2

2x + 4y = 8

=> B
