Function A has slope 1 (from y = x + 5).
Function B is only specified to pass through (0,3) — that fixes its y-intercept but not its slope. Its slope could be any real number, so you cannot tell which has the greater slope without more information.
(Examples: B: y = 3 has slope 0 < 1; B: y = 2x + 3 has slope 2 > 1.)
