The first four pairs lie on a straight line with slope 3.

The last two pairs lie on a straight line with a slope of -3.

So the slope of the graph changes sign at the fourth pair, (-2,0).

So the five points can be on the graph of a function involving absolute values. Specifically, with the slope changing from +3 to -3 at (-2,0),

A graph, containing the points (-5,-9), (-4,-6), (-3,-3), (-2,0), and (-1,-3)...
