I can’t see the image you referenced (mc003-1.jpg). Can you upload it or list the four (season, home runs) points from the scatterplot?
How to get the answer once you give the points:
1. Pick two clear points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on the linear trend and compute slope m = (y2 − y1)/(x2 − x1).
2. Use y = y1 + m*(9 − x1) to predict season 9.
Example: if the trend is +5 home runs per season and season 4 is 25, then season 9 ≈ 25 + 5·5 = 50.
