**Vector Spaces**

**Problem Statement:**
If the set \( W \) is a vector space, find a set \( S \) of vectors that spans it. Otherwise, state that \( W \) is not a vector space.

\( W \) is the set of all vectors of the form:
\[ \begin{bmatrix} a + 6b \\ 5b \\ 5a - b \\ -a \end{bmatrix} \]
where \( a \) and \( b \) are arbitrary real numbers.

**Options:**

1. 
\[ \left\{ 
\begin{bmatrix}
1 \\
0 \\
5 \\
0
\end{bmatrix}, 
\begin{bmatrix}
6 \\
5 \\
-1 \\
-1
\end{bmatrix} 
\right\} \]

2. 
\[ \left\{ 
\begin{bmatrix}
1 \\
0 \\
5 \\
-1
\end{bmatrix}, 
\begin{bmatrix}
6 \\
5 \\
-1 \\
0
\end{bmatrix} 
\right\} \]

3. 
\[ \left\{ 
\begin{bmatrix}
6 \\
5 \\
-1 \\
0
\end{bmatrix} 
\right\} \]

4. 
Not a vector space

Please choose the correct option from the above choices regarding the set \( W \).
