When in doubt, graph it.
The 3rd and 4th choices are appropriate.
_____
This is what is known as a "logistic function." It is used to model population growth when there is a resource limit. It starts out exponential, but then slows as it reaches the "carrying capacity" of the environment. The lower asymptote is zero; the upper one is the carrying capacity of the resource--here 15/1 = 15.
