The equation of a line that starts at (0,0) and goes up at the same rate each time can be represented as \( y = mx \), where \( m \) is the slope of the line. Since the line passes through the origin (0,0), there is no constant term (y-intercept), and the equation is correctly represented by \( y = mx \).

So, the correct response is:

y = mx
