### Classifying the Origin in a Dynamical System

**Problem Statement:**

Classify the origin as an attractor, repeller, or saddle point of the dynamical system \( \mathbf{x}_{k+1} = A\mathbf{x}_k \). Find the directions of greatest attraction and/or repulsion.

The matrix \( A \) is given by:
\[ 
A = \begin{pmatrix}
0.6 & 0.6 \\ 
-0.8 & 2.0 
\end{pmatrix}
\]

**Options for Classifying the Origin:**

Classify the origin as an attractor, repeller, or saddle point. Choose the correct answer below:
- **A.** The origin is a saddle point.
- **B.** The origin is an attractor.
- **C.** The origin is a repeller.
