Answer:

Sample answer: No, Sam is not correct. The graph of a proportional relationship has the form y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality. Sam added the constant of proportionality instead of using it as the coefficient of x. The correct equation is y = 6x. Sam’s graph would be a straight line, but it would not pass through the origin.
