Which graph has a rate of change of zero?

A
Image with description On a coordinate plane, the x axis ranges from negative 5 to 5 in increments of 1. The y axis ranges from negative 5 to 5 in increments of 1. A line passes through the points (negative 1 comma negative 3) and (1 comma 3).
B
Image with description On a coordinate plane, the x axis ranges from negative 5 to 5 in increments of 1. The y axis ranges from negative 5 to 5 in increments of 1. There is a line parallel to the y axis that is 3 units to the right of the y axis.
C
Image with description On a coordinate plane, the x axis ranges from negative 5 to 5 in increments of 1. The y axis ranges from negative 5 to 5 in increments of 1. There is a line parallel to the x axis that is 3 units above the x axis.
D

Juno is taking a taxi. The table represents a linear function and shows the amount she owed after various numbers of miles traveled. Is the rate of change 2 point 2 5 ?

A
Yes, because the amount owed changes by 2 point 2 5 every time the miles change by 1 .
B
No, because the amount owed does not change by 1 every time the miles change by 2 point 2 5 .
C
Yes, because the amount owed changes by 1 every time the miles change by 2 point 2 5 .
D
No, because the amount owed does not change by 2 point 2 5 every time the miles change by 1 .
