The question asks line that does not have either x or y with NEGATIVE sign
A.\(y = –3x + 4\).......If x is negative then y is always positive............Keep....There is no points on the line lie in quadrant III.
B.\(y = 3x + 4\)........x = -2, then y = -2 Eliminate
C.\(y= \frac{X}{3}+4\)........x = -36, then y = - 9 Eliminate
D.\(y = –3x – 4\)................................x = -1 , then y = -1 Eliminate
E. \(y = 3x – 4\).................................x = -1 , then y = -7 Eliminate
Answer: A
