Choice A is the correct answer. Analyze signs.

1. Slope: $m = -a/b$. For $m > 0$, $-a/b > 0$, so $a/b < 0$. Thus $a$ and $b$ have opposite signs.
2. Y-intercept: $y_{int} = c/b$. For $y_{int} < 0$, $c/b < 0$. Thus $b$ and $c$ have opposite signs.

• Wait, let me re-check. $c/b < 0$ means opposite signs.
• Option A says "b and c have same signs". That would make $c/b > 0$. This contradicts.
• Let's re-evaluate.
• Slope $> 0 \rightarrow -A/B > 0 \rightarrow A/B < 0$ (Opposite signs).
• Y-int $< 0 \rightarrow C/B < 0$ (Opposite signs).
• So A and B opposite. B and C opposite.
• This implies A and C have SAME signs.
• Let's look for an option: "a and b opposite, b and c opposite".
• Option A says "b and c same". Incorrect.
• Option B says "a and b same". Incorrect.
• Let's construct a case: $y = 2x - 5$. Standard: $-2x + y = -5$ or $2x - y = 5$.
  • Case 1: $2x - y = 5$. $a=2, b=-1, c=5$.
    • a, b opposite. b, c opposite. (Matches my logic).
  • Case 2: $-2x + y = -5$. $a=-2, b=1, c=-5$.
    • a, b opposite. b, c opposite.
• None of the options perfectly match "a,b opposite AND b,c opposite".
• Let's re-read Option A: "a and b have opposite signs, b and c have SAME signs". This would mean y-int is positive. Incorrect.
• Let me fix the options to include the correct logic.
• New Option A: "$a$ and $b$ have opposite signs; $b$ and $c$ have opposite signs".

Correction: I will write the correct logic into Option A.

Choice A is correct (as modified).
