Answer 1

Answer:

People search for "dogs" more frequently than "cats"

Explanation:

Though the image you spoke about in the question is not given but Google Trends is a search trends feature that shows how often Google's search engine is queried using a given word or phrase in relation to the site's total search volume over a given period of time. So if a particular trend(A) plots higher than another(B) it shows that people are searching for "A" more frequently than "B". So option B is the likely answer without showing the image you speak of.
