y = mx + b is the slope intercept form of a line....or the equation of a line written in slope intercept form.

Linear equations can be written in the form y = mx + b, where m represents the slope of the line, and b represents the y-intercept.

For example, y = 3x + 7 is a linear equation with a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of 7.
