For a parabola if
a) Squared term is x
Parabola either opens up or down.
Positive coefficient means upward opening and negative coefficient means downward opening
b) Squared term is y
Parabola either opens right or left
Positive coefficient means rightwards opening and negative coefficient means leftwards opening
In the given question, since the squared term is y and coefficient is negative, the parabola will open towards left.
So correct answer is option B
