Myron records the number of chirps per minute (x) that crickets make at different temperatures (y) in degrees Fahrenheit. He determines that the association is linear and that the line of best fit is y=1/6x + 50. What is the interpretation of the slope and y-intercept of this equation?

A. The slope predicts a temperature increase of about 6 degrees for every increase of 50 chirps per minute. The y-intercept shows that when the crickets are not chirping (x=0), the temperature is 1/6 degrees.

B. The slope predicts a temperature increase of about 50 degrees for every increase of 1 chirp per minute. The y-intercept shows that when the crickets are not chirping (x=0), the temperature is 0 degrees.

C. The slope predicts a temperature increase of about 1/6 degrees for every increase of 1 chirp per minute. The y-intercept shows that when the crickets are not chirping (x=0), the temperature is 50 degrees.

D. The chirping increases as the temperature goes down.
