The slope-intercept form of a line is shown below:

y = mx + b

Where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

We can find the slope of the given line:

y = -20

When comparing with the given form, but we need to complete this equation first as follows:

y = 0x - 20

Note we have completed the term with the 'x' with a zero coefficient.

Now we can compare, the two parameters are:

slope = 0 (zero)

y-intercept = -20
