Use the image to answer the question.

A graph shows a horizontal axis representing time in days ranging from 0 to 10 in increments of 1. The vertical axis represents cookies in a jar ranging from 0 to 10 in increments of 1. Two plotted points are: left parenthesis 1 comma 6 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 2 comma 5 right parenthesis. These points are joined by a straight line with arrows on both the ends; the straight line continues beyond the two points until it intercepts the horizontal axis and the vertical axis.
