The point slope form of a line is expressed as

(y - y1) = m(x - x1)

where

m represents slope

x1 and y1 represents the intial x and y coordinates.

From the information given,

m = 6

x1 = - 3

y1 = - 1

By substituting these values into the equation, the point slope form of the line is

(y - - 1) = 6(x - - 3)

(y + 1) = 6(x + 3)
