g(x) = 3x + 1

a
The slope of f(x) is less than the slope of g(x). The y-intercept of f(x) is equal to the y-intercept of g(x).

b
The slope of f(x) is less than the slope of g(x). The y-intercept of f(x) is greater than the y-intercept of g(x).

c
The slope of f(x) is greater than the slope of g(x). The y-intercept of f(x) is equal to the y-intercept of g(x).

d
The slope of f(x) is greater than the slope of g(x). The y-intercept of f(x) is greater than the y-intercept of g(x).
