y=14.94x+109.5. where x represents the number of years after 2000

y represents the number of mobile

Y intercept is the value when number of years x is 2000

It means y intercept is the value when x=0

To find y intercept , we plug in 0 for x

y=14.94x+109.5

y=14.94(0)+109.5

y = 109.5

y intercept is (0,109.5)

The number of mobile is 109.5 in the year 2000
