Which statement is true? 

1. The y intercept of function a is greater than the y intercept of function b.   


2. The y intercept of function b is greater than the y intercept of function a

To determine which statement is true, let's analyze the \( y \)-intercepts of both functions:

1. **Function A** (from the graph):
   - The green line in the graph intercepts the \( y \)-axis at \( y = 0 \).

2. **Function B** (given as \( y = 2x - 1 \)):
   - The equation \( y = 2x - 1 \) has a \( y \)-intercept of \( -1 \), as seen from the constant term \( -1 \) when \( x = 0 \).

**Comparison of y-intercepts**:
- The \( y \)-intercept of Function A is \( 0 \).
- The \( y \)-intercept of Function B is \( -1 \).

Since \( 0 > -1 \), **the y-intercept of Function A is greater than the y-intercept of Function B**.

### Answer:
**Statement 1** is true: *The y-intercept of function A is greater than the y-intercept of function B.*
