Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:


\begin{gathered} (x_1,y_1)=(-3,4) \\ (x_2,y_2)=(0,2) \end{gathered}

The slope is calculated thus:


\begin{gathered} m=(\Delta y)/(\Delta x)=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(2-4)/(0--3)=(-2)/(3)=-(2)/(3) \\ m=-(2)/(3) \end{gathered}

The y-intercept of the graph is given by the point where the straight line touches the y-axis which is 2.


b=2

The first and second options are the correct answer
