A - shifts down one
At x=0
the y=x^2 = 0 and y=x^2-1 = -1

Graph 1
y = x²
Vertex is (0,0)
Graph 2
y = x² - 1
Vertex is (0 , -1)
Graph 2 is obtained from Graph 1 by sliding Graph 1 downwards by 1 unit.

It should be intuitive... but what are the values of the two equations when x=0?
y=x^2
y=(0)^1
y=x^2 - 1
y=(0)^2 - 1
Tells you everything you need to know.
