Use a straight edge to approximate the y-intercept.  It turns out to be (0,0).  Next, choose a point at the other end of the graph.  One such point might be (9.5, 19.5).

Thus, the slope of this regression line is m = rise / run = 19.5 / 9.5 = 2.05.

I would say that the best fit based upon these calculations would be

y = 2x + 0.

Choice B is not exactly the same:  y = 2x + 1.

However, Choice B is closest to the calculated y = 2x + 0.

Answer:

B.y = 2x + 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

By first sketching a line of best fit then comparing it to the given equations, the equation that best matches the graph is y = 2x + 1.
