For a more elaborated answer:

 

It cannot be A, as a differential equation is representative of a change in something (volume is the most basic one). A way to show that would be something like dV/dx, where dV is the change in volume and dx is the change in x, whatever x may be. Because your equation is not set up as such, it cannot be A.

 

It cannot be B, because as previously stated, a linear equation is in the form y=mx+b, which your equation clearly isn't in.

 

Finally, it cannot be D, as an expression is just an equation without the "y=" part. So what you have is an equation. The expression would be e^(-x).

 

Therefore, the answer must be C, a non-linear equation.

 

Incidentally, what math class are you in?
