Our answer is
\boxed{\bf{horizontal}}


\Large\texttt{Explanation}

We are asked to complete the following statement -

The line y = 2 is ...?

Correct Answer: Horizontal

The line y = 2 is a horizontal line that has a slope of 0.

How did I figure this out?

Well, remember that a horizontal line has the form y = some number, and all horizontal lines have a slope of 0.

On the other hand, a line that has the form x = some number is a vertical line with an undefined slope.


\therefore our answer is horizontal.
