Answer:

slope = -3; y intercept= -3

Explanation:

slope: to find slope you have to find rise/run. if you start from the point (0,-3), and go up 3(rise) and to the left, making it negative, 1(run), you'll get the slope 3/-1 which simplifies to -3.

y intercept: the y intercept is the y coordinate where the line crosses the y axis (the vertical line on the graph). This one crosses at the point (0, -3), so the y intercept would be -3.

Explanation:

The slope is rise/run, so it is 6/-2 = -3

The line crosses the y axis at -3
