Answer: Heyaa!

The slope of a line is the ratio of the amount that y increases as x increases some amount. Slope tells you how steep a line is, or how much y increases as x increases. The slope is constant (the same) anywhere on the line.

Explanation:

A line is increasing if it goes up from left to right. The slope is positive, >.

A line is decreasing if it goes down from left to right. The slope is negative, <.

Hopefully this helps you !
