Answer

They are family of parallel lines with different intercepts on y-axis

Work Step by Step

Family of lines $2x - y = C$ are parallel line Rearranging we get $y = 2x-C$ And lines then become For C = 2, $y = 2x-2$, Line has negative y intercept For C = 0, $y = 2x$, Line passes through origin and has positive slope For C = -4, $y = 2x+4$, Line has positive y intercept
