IMO = A

If it doesn't intersect a particular line means it should be parallel to that line.
A parallel line should have the same slope.

(1) If it does not intresect then they are parallel line having the same slope. Sufficient.
(2) If they intersect at 90° then the product of the slope is -1. This is not necessary. Insufficient.

IMO A
