If we have $k(z)=\frac{z}{1-tz}$ which is convex in unit disk, then $k(\bar{z})=\overline{k(z)}$, $k(z)$ maps real axis to real axis where $|z|\leq{r}$, $t\in\mathbb{R}$. What is the upper and lower bounds of $\Re {k(z)}$?

0If $r\ge1/t$ then there can't be any upper bound since $k\to\infty$ as $z\to1/t$ – 2011-12-02

I would suggest writing the LFT in the following form:
$ k(z)=\frac{z}{1-tz} = -\frac{1}{t} + \frac{1}{t(1-tz)} $
Now test with some points in $\mathbb{C}$ such as $\infty,0,1,\frac{1}{t}$ etc.
For some geometric aid, to see Gerry Myerson's comment try this applet. Also you can find your answer by trying out.
