The true statement regarding the key features of a linear graph is:
**the points will make a straight line.**
In a linear graph, the relationship between the two variables is represented by a straight line, indicating a constant rate of change. The other statements are not necessarily true for all linear graphs:
- The initial value is not always zero; it can be any value depending on the intercept.
- The points do not always have positive values; they can be negative depending on the specific linear equation.
- The rate of change in a linear graph is constant, not varying along the graph.
