**Question:**
Which best represents \( y = x - 1 \)?

**Options:**

1. **Data Table 1:**
   \[
   \begin{array}{|c|c|}
   \hline
   x & y \\
   \hline
   0 & 1 \\
   \hline
   1 & 0 \\
   \hline
   \end{array}
   \]

2. **Data Table 2:**
   \[
   \begin{array}{|c|c|}
   \hline
   x & y \\
   \hline
   3 & 2 \\
   \hline
   6 & 4 \\
   \hline
   \end{array}
   \]

3. **Graph 1:**
   ![Graph 1](graph1.png)
   - This graph shows a straight line passing through the points (-2, -3), (1, 0), (3, 2), etc.
   - The line has a positive slope and moves upwards from the left to the right.

4. **Graph 2:**
   ![Graph 2](graph2.png)
   - This graph shows a straight line passing through the points (-2, -3), (0, -1), (3, 2), etc.
   - The line also has a positive slope, similar to the first graph, and moves upwards from the left to the right.

**Explanation:**

To find out which option best represents the equation \( y = x - 1 \):

1. **Data Table Verification:**
    - Substitute \(x\) values into \( y = x - 1 \).
      - For Data Table 1:
        - When \( x = 0 \), \( y = 0 - 1 = -1 \) (but table shows \( y = 1 \)).
        - When \( x = 1 \), \( y = 1 - 1 = 0 \) (correct).
      - For Data Table 2:
        - When \( x = 3 \), \( y = 3 - 1 = 2 \) (correct).
        - When \( x = 6 \), \( y = 6 - 1 = 5 \) (but table shows \(
