Solution

The correct options are
C 4, -1, 0
D -4, 1, 0
y = 4x can be rewritten as -4x + y = 0 or 4x - y = 0

On comparing -4x + y = 0 with
ax + by + c = 0, we get
a = -4
b = 1
c = 0
Or
On comparing 4x - y = 0 with
ax + by + c = 0, we get
a = 4
b = -1
c = 0
-4, 1, 0 or 4, -1, 0 or are the values of a, b and c respectively.
