Answer:

The second option

Explanation:

The rate of change needs to stay constant.

The rate of change can be explained by looking at the "rise" (y) over the "run"(x)

The rate of change for the second option is 2. We know this because...

Rise(2)

----------

Run(1)

Try looking at one of the points, now go up 2 and over 1, you should now be at the second point, do it again but twice, you should now be at the third point. A proportional relationship must also go through the origin (0,0)
