The graph shows a line which has an equation in the form `y = mx + c`.

Which of the following statements is true?

`m` is positive and `c` is negative
`m` is negative and `c` is positive
`m` and `c` are both positive
`m` and `c` are both negative

`m` is the gradient and the line slopes to the right so `m` is positive.

`c` is the `y`-intercept which is negative.

`:.\ m` is positive and `c` is negative.
