Hello!

This equation is in slope-intercept form, whicb is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The y-intercept is where the graph intersects the y-axis (the vertical axis). This line will intersect the y-axis at 5.

Our slope is -1/3, which means the line will slope downwards.

I've attached the graph.
