No, it is not realistic that owners spend $850 a year on their pet(s).

What is a function?

In mathematics, a function is an expression, rule, or law that describes the relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).

Explanation

According to the graph given in the question, there are 2.5 people who spend $850 a year on their pets.
2.5 people is not a realistic no. as the no. of people has to be a natural number.
But it is still realistic that people will spend more than $850 on their dog as no. of people can't be 2.5 but they can be a natural no. less than 2.5 like 1 people/ 2 people according to the graph.

Hence, Option(B) and Option(C) both are correct.
