Without changing the direction of the coordinate axes,the origin is shifted to $(h, k)$ such that the linear (first-degree) terms in the equation $x^2 + y^2 - 4x + 6y - 7 = 0$ are eliminated. Then the point $(h, k)$ is:

  • A
    $(3, 2)$
  • B
    $(-3, 2)$
  • C
    $(2, -3)$
  • D
    None of these
