To determine the slope and y-intercept of the graph, you'll need to analyze the graph directly:
1. **Slope**: The slope represents the rate of change of the number of balls thrown over time. It can be calculated by selecting two points on the graph and using the formula:
\[ \text{Slope} = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \]
where \(\Delta y\) is the change in the number of balls thrown (y-coordinates) and \(\Delta x\) is the change in time (x-coordinates).
2. **Y-intercept**: The y-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the y-axis. This is the value of the number of balls thrown when time \(x\) is 0.
Please refer to the specific graph data to find the exact values for the slope and y-intercept.

To determine if the relationship represented by the graph is proportional, you can check the following criteria:
1. **Constant Slope**: If the slope of the line is constant (i.e., the same between any two points on the line), the relationship is likely proportional.
2. **Y-intercept**: If the line passes through the origin (0,0), it indicates that when there is no time (x=0), no balls have been thrown (y=0). This would confirm a proportional relationship.
If both conditions are met, then the relationship is proportional. Otherwise, it is not.

If the graph is a straight line that passes through the origin, then **yes**, it is proportional. If not, then **no**.
