HOLA
=======================
Let Nth term be given as
Tn = (an + b) ( Where A and B are constant)
Tn - 1 = a (n - 1) + b = { (an + b) - a}
So by subtracting them we have,
Tn - Tn - 1 = { (an + b) - (an + b) - a} = a
Hence the given is an progression

ANSWER
Let the progression be tn
According to the question: tn=an+b
Let us take the consecutive difference: tn−tn−1 =an+b−a(n−1)−b=2a
As the consecutive difference is constant, the sequence is an AP by definition of an AP.
