Answer:

The slope is 2/3, and the y-intercept is -5 or (0, -5).

Explanation:

You can immediately read off the y-intercept. The line intersects the y-axis at (0, -5).

You can also see that the line goes through (-6, -9).

As we move from (-6, -9) to (0, -5), x increases by 6 and y increases by 4.

Thus, the slope is m = rise / run = 4/6, or m = 2/3.

The slope is 2/3, and the y-intercept is -5 or (0, -5).
