Answer: Quadrant III

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's pick example values for m and b

I'll go for m = -2 and b = 5. Anything works as long as m is negative and b is positive.

We go from y = mx+b to y = -2x+5

Plot this graph as shown below. The line passes through quadrants I, II, and IV. Only quadrant III is not touched at all.

If m<0 and b>0,the graph of y=max+b does not pass through which quadrant-example-1
