Solve the problem.The amount of water in a leaky bucket is given by the linear function , where y is in ounces and x is in minutes. Find and interpret the slope and y-intercept of the linear equation.

A. m = 114; The amount of water in the bucket increases 114 ounces every minute.   At x = 0, the amount of water in the bucket was 9 ounces.
B. m = 114; The amount of water in the bucket decreases 114 ounces every minute.   At x = 0, the amount of water in the bucket was 9 ounces.
C. m = -9; The amount of water in the bucket decreases 9 ounces every minute.   At x = 0, the amount of water in the bucket was 114 ounces.
D. m = 9; The amount of water in the bucket increases 9 ounces every minute.   At x = 0 the amount of water in the bucket was 114 ounces.
