Let's take two points from your line. where it intersects with x-axis and y-axis:
A(0; -3) and B(3;0)
Now, to find the slope of the line, we use this formula:

m=(y_(1)-y_(2))/(x_(1)-x_(2)), where
m is the slope.
So, the slope of given line is:

m=(-3-0)/(0-3)=(-3)/(-3)=1

Okay, so I'm almost positive the slope is m=1/1. I know this because the line rises one and runs one.
