A system of linear equations includes the line that is created by the equation y = 0.5 x minus 1 and the line through the points (3, 1) and (–5, –7), shown below. On a coordinate plane, points are at (negative 5, negative 7) and (3, 1).

What is the solution to the system of equations?
(–6, –4)
(0, –1)
(0, –2)
(2, 0)
