    Based on the graph:

    Tennis players 40 35 30 25 20 15 10

    Hockey players 0 10 20 30 40 50 60

    The number of tennis players decreases as the number of field hockey players increases. A decrease of 5 tennis players result to an increase of 10 hockey players.

    The statement that best supports the line of best fit is:

    C - When there are 10 field hockey players, there will be about 35 tennis players.
