We have that equation of the line in point-slope form is


y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point where the line passes through

in our case

m=-1

(x1,y1)=(-5,-3)

we substitute the values


y+3=-1(x+5)

then we simplify


y+3=-x-5

then we isolate the x and we obtain the equation of the line


y=-x-8
