Based on the graph:

tennis players       40     35     30     25     20     15     10
hockey players         0     10     20     30     40     50     60

the number of tennis players decreases as the number of field hockey players increases. a decrease of 5 tennis players result to an increase of 10 hockey players.

the statement that best supports the line of best fit is:

c - when there are 10 field hockey players, there will be about 35 tennis players.
