Answer:
A point that must lie on this line is the origin (0,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The equation of the line in standard form is equal to
where
A is a positive integer
B and C are integer
In this problem
C=0
so
That means, that the line represent a proportional relationship between the variables x and y
Remember that in a proportional relationship the line passes through the origin
therefore
A point that must lie on this line is the origin (0,0)
