Line K's slope is positive and L's is negative. Is K's intersection point with axis-y above that of L?

1). K's intersection point with axis-x is to the left of the origin.
2). K's intersection point with axis-y is above the origin.

1). K's intersection point with axis-x is to the left of the origin.

if L's is to the right of origin then it may have a higher y intercept & if it also has its x intercept towards left of origin then its y inetrcept will be less that that of K INSUFF

2). K's intersection point with axis-y is above the origin.

Using above explanation, if L has its x intercept on the +ve x axis it may have a higher y intercept & vice versa

INSUFF

Combine : both stmts convey similar data INSUFF
