To determine if a table represents a proportional relationship, we need to check if the ratio of the corresponding values for each pair of values remains constant.

Let's calculate the ratios for each option:

A. Ratios for Option A:
(-23) / 3 = -7.67
(-29) / 4 = -7.25
(-41) / 6 = -6.83

B. Ratios for Option B:
(-10) / 3 = -3.33
(-16) / 4 = -4
(-28) / 6 = -4.67

C. Ratios for Option C:
(-22) / 3 = -7.33
(-30) / 4 = -7.5
(-46) / 6 = -7.67

D. Ratios for Option D:
(-24) / 3 = -8
(-32) / 4 = -8
(-48) / 6 = -8

To have a proportional relationship, the ratios for each option should be equal.

Looking at the ratios, we can see that the ratios for Option B, C, and D are all equal.

Therefore, the answer is Option B, as it represents a proportional relationship.
