Answer:

y = (6)/(7)x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$Point 1: (-7, -7)\\Point 2: (7, -5)$

(y_(2) - y_(1) )/(x_(2) - x_(1))

((-5) - (-7))/((-7) - (7))

(-12)/(-14)

(12)/(14)

m = (6)/(7)

y - y_(1) = m(x - x_(1))

y - (-7) = (6)/(7)(x - (-7))

y + 7 = (6)/(7)(x + 7)

y = (6)/(7)x + (42)/(7) - 7

y = (6)/(7)x + ((42)/(7) - (49)/(7))

y = (6)/(7)x - 1
