For this case we have that the line equation of the slope-intersection form is given by:


y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut point with the y axis.

In this case
m = 0

So, we have:


y = (0) x + b\\y = b

We find the cutting point by substituting the y coordinate of the given point:


b = -2

Thus, the equation is
y = -2

ANswer:

Option b
