Answer:


\displaystyle -5x + y = -92\:or\:y = 5x - 92

Explanation:

−12 = 5[16] + b

80


\displaystyle -92 = b \\ \\ y = 5x - 92

If you want it in Standard Form:

y = 5x - 92

- 5x - 5x

__________


\displaystyle -5x + y = -92

Not sure if it's right but I tried:
(16,-12) assuming x=16,y=-12
y=5x-4
-12=5(16)-4
-12=240-4
-12=236
(Divide maybe?)
-12=236
236 divided 12= 19.6
