we have the points

(-2,6) and (-3,-7)

step 1

Find out the slope

m=(-7-6)/(-3+2)

m=-13/-1

m=13

step 2

Find out the equation in slope-intercept form

y=mx+b

we have

m=13

point (-2,6)

substitute and solve for b

6=13(-2)+b

6=-26+b

b=32

therefore

y=13x+32

step 3

Convert to standard form

AX+By=C

y=13x+32

13x-y=-32 -------> is equivalent to -13x+y=32

therefore

the answer is option D
