Answer:
(0,a)

Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of the linear equation is:
y = bx + a

The y-intercept is the value of the y that occurs at x = 0.
Substitute with x = 0 in the equation:
y = b(0) + a
y = a

This means that:
at x = 0 ............> y = a

Therefore, the coordinate of the y-intercept would be (0,a)

Hope this helps :)
