I vaguely recall that if one root is positive, the other must be negative for certain equations. Maybe option D is the right choice?

I'm a bit confused about whether there can be two real roots that are both negative. I feel like I need to double-check the signs.

I think I practiced a similar question where we had to find the relationship between the roots. Could it be option C?

I remember something about the discriminant indicating the number of real roots, but I'm not sure how it applies here.

I've got a strategy - I'll solve for the roots, then check each statement to see which one matches the results.

This looks like a standard quadratic equation problem. I'll need to find the roots and then evaluate which statement is true.
