D
None of the lines fit the data.
A scatterplot on the x y axis where x and y scale by 1. Points fall diagonally from (1, 7) in a narrow scatter toward (9, 1) before curving back and moving toward (1, 3). A line labeled A decreases diagonally extending from (0, 7) through (8, 1). A line labeled B decreases diagonally extending from (0, 3) through (8, 1). A line labeled C increases diagonally extending from (1, 2) through (9, 6). All values are estimated.

Answer 1

Based on the description provided, the line that fits the data graphed is line B. Line B decreases diagonally extending from (0, 3) through (8, 1), which aligns with the pattern of the points falling diagonally from (1, 7) toward (9, 1) before curving back and moving toward (1, 3).

Therefore, the correct answer is:

B.
