medium

The scatterplot shows the relationship between two variables, $x$ and $y$. The scatterplot has $11$ data points. The data points are in a linear pattern trending up from left to right. The data points have the following coordinates: $(0,0)$, $(0.3,0.7)$, $(1.2,0.5)$, $(1.9,1.9)$, $(2.8,2.9)$, $(3.7,3.8)$, $(4.2,4.3)$, $(4.8,4.5)$, $(6.1,6.5)$, $(7.4,7.1)$, $(9.2,9.6)$
Which of the following equations is the most appropriate linear model for the data shown?

A

$y=0.07-1.02x$

B

$y=1.02-0.07x$

C

$y=-0.07+1.02x$

D

$y=-1.02+0.07x$
