Answer 1

The correct statement regarding the key features of a linear graph is:

The points will make a straight line.

Linear graphs depict a constant rate of change, which means the slope is constant throughout the graph. The other options are incorrect:

• The rate of change does not vary; it is constant.
• The points do not always have positive values; they can have negative values as well.
• The initial value (y-intercept) is not always zero; it can be any value.
