c. When there is exactly one solution, the graph will show

two lines that intersect in a single point, and the
substitution method will give the coordinates of the
point. When there are infinitely many solutions, the
graphs coincide, and substitution leads to an equation
that is always true. When there are no solutions, the
graphs are parallel, and substitution results in an
equation that is never true.
