Since 'x' and 'y' both appear to the first power, this is a linear equation.

That means that the graph is a straight line, and it doesn't 'open'.

The line has a slope of -1, and it cuts the y-axis at y=9.

Which direction would the graph of y-x plus 2 plus 3 open?

The question contains an expression, not an equation. An expression does not have a graph. Furthermore, even if it were an equation, its form suggests that it would be a linear equation and a linear equation does not open in any direction.

Which statement holds true for absolute value functions The absolute value determines the direction in which the graph opens. The coefficient determines the line along which the graph is symmetrical.?

Neither statement is true. The graph of the absolute value of a function which is always non-negative will be the same as that of the original function and this need not open in any direction. Also, the graph of y = abs[x*(x-1)*(x+2)] is not symmetrical so there is no coefficient which will determine a line of symmetry.
