he points on this graph represent a relationship between x- and y-values. Which statement about the relationship is true?

Graph with coordinates (0, 0). 3 points are plotted at approximately (1, 3.5); (2, 4.5); (3, 5.5).

It must be proportional because the points lie in a straight line.

It must be proportional because each time x increases by 1 unit, y increases by 1 unit.

It cannot be proportional because the straight line through the points does not go through the origin.

It cannot be proportional because the y-values are not whole numbers.

It cannot be determined if the relationship is proportional based solely on the given information.

The correct statement about the relationship is: "It cannot be proportional because the straight line through the points does not go through the origin."
