A straight line graph with negative slope slants downward from left to right.
y=ax is a line that goes through the origin. If a is negative the left side is up. If it is zero it is level. If it is positive the right side is up.
The formula y=Mx + B is the slope intercept equation of a line. If you where to graph this on a 2 dimensional graph with x and y axes the number represented by M would be the slope of the line. A positive value of M would mean a positive slope and the line will rise as one views it from left to right. A negative value of M would indicate a negative slope and the line will descend as one views it from left to right. A value of zero for M would indicate a horizontal line.

a correlation on a graph is when the line of best fit is positive, negative or none.
The trend of a graph is the slope of any line on the graph that indicated a positive or growth factor and/or a negative or decaying factor. If the slope goes negative, the graph's line will go down thus indicating decay. If the slope becomes positive, the graph's line will go up thus indicating growth.
This depends on what the graph represents. If it is a graph of velocity on the vertical and time on the horizontal, then if acceleration is at a constant rate, the graph will be a straight line with positive slope (pointing 'up'). If acceleration stops, then the graph will be a horizontal line (zero acceleration or deceleration). If it is deceleration (negative acceleration), then the graph will have negative slope (pointing down).
This is a straight line graph with the equation, y = n where n is any positive or negative number.
Absolute values are always positive; so graph it on the positive side of the number line.
A direct relationship if the slope of the line is positive. An inverse relationship if the slope of the line is negative.
Acceleration is represented on a graph by the slope of the velocity-time graph. A positive slope indicates acceleration in the positive direction, while a negative slope indicates acceleration in the negative direction. A horizontal line on the graph represents constant velocity, with zero acceleration.

If the line slants up and to the right, it has a positive slope. If it is slanting up and to the left, it has a negative slope.
The slope of a velocity vs. time graph represents acceleration. A positive slope indicates acceleration in the positive direction, a negative slope indicates acceleration in the negative direction, and a horizontal line indicates constant velocity.
On a number line, the positive numbers extend to the right of zero, and the negative numbers extend to the left of zero. So -3.4 is 3.4 to the left of zero.
