Answer: these lines are parallel.

Explanation:


\displaystyle\\\left \{ {{6x-2y=-2} \atop {y=3x+12}} \right. \\\\ \left \{ {{6x-2y+2=0} \atop {y=3x+12}} \right. \\\\ \left \{ {6x+2=2y\  \atop {x=2}} \right. \\\\\left \{ {{3x+1=y} \atop {y=3x+12}} \right.\\ \\\left \{ {{y=3x+1} \atop {y=3x+12}} \right. \\So,\ these\ lines\ are\ parallel.
