Dennis drew the line of best fit on the scatter plot shown below:
A graph is shown with scale along x axis from 0 to 10 at increments of 1 and scale along y axis from 0 to 15 at increments of 1.The ordered pairs 0, 15 and 0.5, 14 and 1, 13 and 2, 12 and 3, 11 and 4, 9 and 5, 8 and 6, 6 and 7, 4.5 and 8, 2.3 and 9, 2 and 9.8, 0.5 are shown on the graph. A straight line joins the ordered pairs 0, 15 and 10, 0.
What is the approximate equation of this line of best fit in slope-intercept form? (1 point)
y = −15x + 2 over 3
y = negative 2 over 3x + 15
y = −15x + 3 over 2
y = negative 3 over 2x + 15

The correct answer is: y = -1.5x + 15
would that be the first, second, third, or fourth one
