Answer:

Negative

If the the line goes from quadrant 2 to quadrant 4 then the slope would be negative

to find the slope you take

Δy÷Δx .... this just means the change in y over the change in x

for example

if i had points A (-2,3) B( 4,-5)

I take the y points and subtract them from one another

and i then take the x coordinates and subtract them, take the end result and divide y over x

3-(-5) / -2-4

8/-6

4/-3

And since the final slope is negative therefore the line is going downwards and is negative
