GIVEN: equation of line is x = y
Anther approach is to rewrite equation in slope y-intercept form y = mx + b, where m = slope of the line, and b = the y-intercept
Take the equation x = y and rewrite as: y = 1x + 0
Aha, so the line's slope is 1, and its y-intercept is 0
Line D is the only line with a positive slope, AND line D also has a y-intercept of 0
Answer: D
