### Graph Analysis of Function \( f \)

#### Graph Description

The image depicts the graph of a function \( f \), plotted on a coordinate plane. 

- **Axes and Scale**: 
  - The horizontal axis (x-axis) ranges from -9 to 9.
  - The vertical axis (y-axis) ranges from -8 to 8.
  - Both axes are marked with a grid to show units incrementing by 1.

- **Graph Behavior**:
  - The graph begins decreasing from the left, starting at \( x = -9 \) and reaching a low point before \( x = -6 \).
  - It then increases until just after \( x = -5 \).
  - It decreases again until around \( x = -3 \).
  - From \( x = -3 \), it increases until just after \( x = -1 \).
  - A third decrease starts from \( x = 2 \) and ends at a relative minimum before \( x = 5 \).
  - The function increases again past \( x = 6 \).
  - The graph ends with a decrease as it approaches \( x = 9 \).

#### Questions

1. **How many intervals of decreasing are there?**
   - Select the appropriate number from a dropdown. 
  
2. **What is the RELATIVE min?**
   - Select the relative minimum value of the function from a dropdown.

3. **The degree is** 
   - Choose the degree of the polynomial from a dropdown.
  
4. **The leading coefficient is**
   - Select the leading coefficient of the polynomial from a dropdown.

Each question includes a dropdown menu for selecting the appropriate answer. 

> Note: This activity helps students understand the behavior of polynomial functions through analysis of their graphs, identifying key features such as intervals of increase and decrease, relative minima, the degree of the polynomial, and the leading coefficient.
