In the xy-plane shown, is the slope of line l non-negative?

(1) The line passes through quadrants II and III.
(2) For each pair of coordinates (x,y) lying on line l, the product of x and y is not always non-negative.

CONCEPT:
- A line that passes through Quadrants II and IV will have Negative Slope
- A line that passes through Quadrants I and III will have Positive Slope

Question: Is Slope of Line L < 0?

STatement 1: The line passes through quadrants II and III.

Line may have +ve as well as -ve Slope hence

NOT SUFFICIENT

Statement 2:For each pair of coordinates (x,y) lying on line l, the product of x and y is not always non-negative.



NOT SUFFICIENT

Even after combining line may pass through any quadrants hence

NOT SUFFICIENT

Answer: Option E
