equn of circle
x^2 + y^2 = 1

A
x intercept is greater than 1
means line is crossing x axis after 1
but slope can be small
so that it can intersect circle in the backward direction
so not sufficient


B
slope = -1/10
we do not know intercept so insuff


A+B
slope is -ve
means line is going downwards
again whatever x intecept be, line may or may not intersect circle

IMO E

whats the OA??
