Answer:

The y-intercept is -2

Explanation:

Based on the equation y + 2 = 0 (y = -2), you can eliminate all answers except for the second one. This is because, the y is the horizontal line, while the x is the vertical line. The value of x does not always equal the value of y, only sometimes. Finally, the slope of y = -2 is 0, not undefined. However, the slope of x = -2 is undefined.
