1)  A. graph A

2)  E. appears to increase less

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical scale extends farther on graph A, so the vertical extent of the plotted data is a smaller portion of it, making it look like the competitor's profit hasn't increased much.

This is how you can use the scale of a graph to influence the way the graphed data is interpreted. The practice is all too common.
