Use the image to answer the question.
A figure shows four graphs labeled A, B, C, and D, each with an x and y axis and 0 at the origin, and each showing a curve. Graph A shows a straight line with a negative slope having x and y intercepts. Graph B shows a straight line with a positive slope having a y intercept above origin. Graph C shows an increasing concave up curve initiating at the origin. Graph D shows a straight line with a unit slope.
Decide which graph shows a proportional relationship.

The correct answer is A. Graph A shows a straight line with a negative slope that intersects both the x and y axes. This indicates a proportional relationship, where as x increases, y decreases in a consistent ratio.
