The graph in the image shows a line with a negative slope because the line is slanting downwards from left to right. A positive slope would indicate a line rising from left to right, but here the line descends, indicating a **negative slope**.

The correct answer to the question should be **negative** instead of positive.

Would you like further details or clarifications?

Here are some related questions for further practice:
1. What is the slope of a horizontal line?
2. How do you calculate the slope of a line given two points?
3. What is the slope of a vertical line?
4. Can a line have a slope of zero? What does that look like?
5. How would the graph of a positive slope appear?

**Tip**: The slope of a line is calculated by the rise (change in y) over the run (change in x), so lines moving downward have a negative slope.

What type of slope does the line have on the graph below?

Learn how to identify the type of slope on a graph. In this problem, the line slants downward from left to right, indicating a negative slope. Suitable for students in Grades 6-8, this problem helps understand slope calculations using the rise-over-run formula.
