Explanation:

The x-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis (horizontal, left and right line with numbers, arrows at both ends, usually marked x at the right end)

The y-intercept is where your line crosses the y-axis (vertical, up-and-down line with numbers, arrows at the ends, usually marked y at the top)

Two points determine a line.

Draw a line through the two points given. See image.
