Line B:
zero
Line D:
negative
Line C:
undefined
Line A:
positive
Notes:

Strategies to help remember the difference between a graph with an "undefined" and "zero" slope is “undefined” slope is straight “up and down”, and horizontal lines have a slope of zero.
Find the slope of the graphed line. The first line has points chosen for you, but practice choosing your own two points on the other examples.
