PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The system of equations shown is solved using the linear combination method

StartLayout 1st row 1st column 6 x minus 5 y = negative 8 right-arrow 2nd column 6 x minus 5 y = negative 8 right-arrow 6x minus 5 y = negative 8 2nd row 1st column negative 24 x + 20 y = 32 right-arrow one-fourth (negative 24 x + 20 y = 32) right-arrow negative 6 x + 5 y = 8 with Bar Underscript 3rd row 3rd column 0 = 0 EndLayout

What does 0 = 0 mean regarding the solution to the system?

There are no solutions to the system because the equations represent parallel lines.
There are no solutions to the system because the equations represent the same line.
There are infinitely many solutions to the system because the equations represent parallel lines.
There are infinitely many solutions to the system because the equations represent the same line.
