Answer:

Slope would approximately be -1/8

Explanation:

The first point that it looks like it touches would be (0,100) then from what I can see the next point would be (400,50). To get from the first point to the second, the slope would have to drop 1 block and move to the right 8 blocks. This means the slope would be -1/8
