Answer:

B.
(3,15)

E.
(-1,-5)

Explanation:

we have


y=5x -----> represent a linear direct variation

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form
y/x=k or
y=kx

In this problem we have


k=y/x=5

Verify each case

Point A
(0,1)


k=y/x=1/0 ----> k is undefined

Point B
(3,15)


k=y/x=15/3=5 -----> the point is on the given line

Point C
(4,2)


k=y/x=2/4=0.5 -----> the point is not on the given line

Point D
(3,6)


k=y/x=6/3=2 -----> the point is not on the given line

Point E
(-1,-5)


k=y/x=-5/-1=5 -----> the point is on the given line

Point F
(-1,5)


k=y/x=5/-1=-5 -----> the point is not on the given line
