Answer

Makes sense

Work Step by Step

Makes sense because, it takes longer to come to a stop on a wet road, meaning it will travel longer distances before coming to a stop. Therefore, since for every $x$ of time, the $y$ distance for graph $a$ is greater than graph $b$. $a$ represents distance for the wet road and $b$ represents distance for dry road.
