In the graph, the points on the line or below it represent combinations that fall within the budgeted amount for entertainment, while those above the line represent combinations that exceed the budget. Using this logic, we can see that the point (7,5) falls above the line, indicating that it exceeds Mrs. Kalbrisa's budget. Therefore, choice D is the best choice.
