Answer: C) the y-intercept is the starting height of the plant

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation of a straight line, there is a slope (2) and a y intercept (5). The y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis. It is the starting point for the y values. The science class starts the experiment with the plant being 5 centimeters high and since this is the starting point/height, this is also the y intercept.
