The graph shows the linear parent function. Which statement best describes the function?

Step 1 ：Given the linear parent function, y = x

Step 2 ：Calculate the slope and the point it passes through

Step 3 ：Slope (m) = 1, Point (0, 0)

Step 4 ：\( \boxed{\text{The function has a slope of 1 and passes through the origin (0, 0)}} \)
