The voltage-current $(V-I)$ graph of a metallic conductor at two different temperatures, $T_1$ and $T_2$ is shown. Which of the two temperatures is higher?

         

The voltage - current $(V-I)$ graph of a metallic conductor at two different temperatures, $T_1$ and $T_2$ is shown in the figure. At which temperature is the resistance higher?

Vagisha and Ryan perform experiments on two given resistors $R_1$ and $R_2$. They get the following plots:  

If it is given that $R_1>R_2$, whose graph represents the situation correctly? Justify your answer.
