Answer:

y =
(-3)/(4)x

Explanation:

[] Since the link goes through the origin (0, 0) there will be no y-intercept or "b" value

[] Since we have a graph with clear points, we can use "rise over run"

-> The line is going down from top left to bottom right, so the slope will be negative

Starting at (0, 0) we count down three and to the right 4 to (-4, -3) giving us a slope of
(-3)/(4)

[] Putting it together;

y = mx + b

y =
(-3)/(4)x

Have a nice day!

I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly.
