Yes, C is the right answer.

I was thinking about it and got this explanation.

Let,
L = y1 = m1x1+C1, y-i'cept = c1, x-i'cept = -c1/m1
M = y2=m2x2+C2, y-i'cept = c2, x-i'cept = -c2/m2

Q: is m1m2 <0>0, insuff since c1c2 and m1m2 could be -ve or +ve at the same time and satisfy.

choice 2). c1c2< 0 , insuff since no info about m1m2

combined): m1m2 must be <0
