I would say it is the first one. But Aiden would be able to save $27.25 initially plus $17.63 every week.

Given is the equation of the line as y = 17.63x + 27.52  

It represents the amount of money saved (y in dollars) in terms of number of weeks (x in weeks).

Aidan started initially with 27.52 dollars, and saved money following the given equation y = 17.63x + 27.52

Comparing it with y = mx + b.  

Here, the slope is m = 17.63 dollars per week, and y-intercept is b = 27.52 dollars.

So, option A is correct i.e. Aidan can expect to save about $17.63 each week.
