Given the slope (m) of the line and the y-intercept (b), the equation of the line may be expressed in slope-intercept form. Below is the expression,
y = mx +b
Substituting the known values,
y = 0(x) + 6
This simplifies into y = 6 which is a horizontal line which is 6 units above the origin. Thus, the answer is TRUE.
