A) The graph of $f(x) = 4x-1$ will have a slope of 4 and a y-intercept of -1. Starting from the y-intercept (-1 on the y-axis), we can move up 4 units and one unit to the right to plot another point. Connecting the two points gives us a straight line that goes up and to the right. 
B) The graph of $f(x) = 2x+2$ will have a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of 2. Starting from the y-intercept (2 on the y-axis), we can move up 2 units and one unit to the right to plot another point. Connecting the two points gives us a straight line that goes up and to the right, but less steeply than the line in part A.
