B. 2

Explanation:

We can plot a graph based on the data from the table given.
#x# represent x-axis and #f(x)# represent y-axis.

So, when we plot the graph, we will get a graph similar to this;

graph{x^2 [-2.729, 2.27, -0.71, 1.79]}

From the shape of the graph, we know that it is a quadratic function.
Thus, the degree of the power function is 2.
