This relationship is linear, because it represents a situation where there is a proportional increase in earnings as the number of tickets sold increases. In this case, when 0 tickets are sold, the earnings are 0 dollars, indicating that there is a direct correlation between the number of tickets sold and the total earnings. The relationship can be expressed with a linear equation, where the earnings is directly dependent on the number of tickets sold.
This relationship is , because 0 tickets sold is 0 dollars earned.

Given the options, the best choice would be Proportional.
A proportional relationship means that as one variable changes, the other variable changes at a constant rate. In this case, if 0 tickets sold results in $0 earned, it suggests that any increase in tickets sold would result in a corresponding increase in dollars earned, maintaining a consistent ratio between them.
