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


y = mx + b

Where:

m: It is the slope of the line

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

According to the statement data we have:


m = - \frac {1} {5}\\y = -11

So, the equation is of the form:


y = - \frac {1} {5} x-11

Answer:


y = - \frac {1} {5} x-11
