Image with description On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens up. It goes through (negative 4 comma 5), has a vertex at (negative 1 comma negative 4), and goes through (2 comma 5).

Explanation

The y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the graph crosses the y-axis, which is the point with x = 0. Choice B includes the point (0, 3), so its y-intercept is 3. The other choices do not show a point on the y-axis with y-coordinate 3.
