detailed solution

Correct option is B

PV = nTR. This gives V = nTR/P. As the graph is not passing through the origin and has positive slope (a) and negative intercept on Y-axis (-b), its equation can be written as P = aT - b. Substitution gives V=nTRaT−b=nRa−(b/T). As T increases the denominator increases and hence V decreases
