I need help ASAP! Is this linear increase decrease or exponential growth decay

Option B: Exponential growth
If for values of x values of y increases and forms a geometric sequence then it would be an exponential growth function because geometric sequence is an exponential function and since, it is increasing hence, an exponential growth.
Option A is incorrect because y is not decreasing
Option C and D are incorrect because geometric sequence can never be linear since, it gives common ratio.
