### Matching Graphs of Functions and Their Derivatives

Below is an exercise to match the given graph of a function \( f \) with its derivative \( f' \).

#### Graph Descriptions:

- **Main Graph at Top Left**:
  - A downward-sloping line from the point \( (-3, 3) \) to \( (3, -3) \).
  - This is the graph of the function \( f \).

#### Options Below:

1. **Option A**: 
   - A horizontal line along the y-axis at \( y = -2 \).
   - Represents a constant negative slope, indicating a constant negative derivative.

2. **Option B**:
   - An upward parabola with vertex at the origin \( (0, 0) \).
   - The curve moves symmetrically upward, crossing through \( (-3, 3) \) and \( (3, 3) \).
   - Represents increasing positive slopes.

3. **Option C**: 
   - A downward-sloping line from \( (-3, 3) \) to \( (3, -3) \).
   - Matches exactly with the original function graph (indicating a linear function).

4. **Option D**: 
   - A horizontal line along the x-axis at \( y = 0 \).
   - Indicates zero slope, suggesting a constant function derivative.

5. **Option E**: 
   - An upward-sloping line from \( (-3, -3) \) to \( (3, 3) \).
   - Indicates a constant positive slope.

To determine the correct match, consider the slope of the original function \( f \). Since it’s a straight line with constant negative slope, the derivative \( f' \) should be a horizontal line representing this constant value. Based on this analysis, **Option A** is the correct match for the derivative \( f' \).
