    Hi there!

    The answer is: increases.

    The temperature in degrees Farenheit is indicated on the horizontal axis. The temperature in degrees Celsius is indicated on the vertical axis.

    Let's have a closer look at two different points on the graph.

    36 degrees Fahrenheit is (more or less) equal to 2 degrees Celsius.

    54 degrees Fahrenheit is (more or less) equal to 12 degrees Celsius.

    We can conclude: when the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit increases, the temperature in degrees Celsius rises as well.

    We can see in the graph that we're dealing with a straight line. This means that the slope (steepness) of the line will always be the same. When the line is increasing one moment, it'll keep increasing.

    Hence, the answer is: the graph shows that as Fahrenheit increases, Celsius increases.

    ~ Hope this helps you!
