3
.
A
The new line would be parallel to the original line.
B
The new line would be perpendicular to the original line.
C
The new line would be more steep than the original line.
D
The new line would be less steep than the original line.

  D  The new line would be less steep than the original line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the slope is change from 3 to 1/3, the new line would be less steep.

__

The steepness of a line increases as the magnitude of the slope increases. The slope 1/3 is less than 3, so a line with that slope is less steep than a line with a slope of 3.

answer: -1
