Answer: 1) gets steeper
2) gets less steep
3) Negative.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, the slope intercept form of a line is,
y = mx + c
Where m represents the slope of the line,
If m = positive , then the line has positive slope,
While If m = negative then the line has negative slope.
Now, The line having the maximum absolute value of m is called stepper line,
Here, the equation of line is,
y = mx
⇒ m is the slope of the line,
1) Since, |1| < |3|
⇒ When m changes from 1 to 3 then the line gets steeper.
2) Since, |-6| > |-1|
⇒ When m changes from -6 to -1 then the line gets less steep.
3) If m = Negative
Then the slope of the line is negative.
