Step 1. Charles' law states that, at constant pressure, V∝TV\propto T (with TT measured in kelvin).

Step 2. A direct proportionality between two variables, V=(constant)×TV=(\text{constant})\times T, always produces a straight line through the origin when plotted.

Step 3. None of the other shapes -- ellipse, circle, parabola -- correspond to a simple direct proportionality.

✓Final answer

(c) a straight line
