Answer:

The slope of the line is 0, that is, it is a horizontal line.

Explanation:

Slope of a line:

The slope of a line having two points in the format (x,y) is given by the change in y divided by the change in x.

(-4,-5) and (3,-5).

Change in y: - 5 - (-5) = -5 + 5 = 0

Change in x: 3 - (-4) = 3 + 4 = 7

0/7 = 0

The slope of the line is 0, that is, it is a horizontal line.
