negative, zero undefined.

 positive
 negative
 zero
 undefined

Answer 1

Positive

Explanation:

if the two points are drawn on a graph, the line would go up

Answer 2

The correct answer option is positive.

Explanation:

We are given two points on a line so we can plot them to determine its slope.

You can see the line that we got as the result of plotting the given points on the graph.

Since the line is sloping up from the left side to the right side, its slope is positive which means that a positive change in y is seen with respect to a positive change in x
