The answer is C) y = 2x - 3

When asked for the LEAST value of the y intercept, we’re looking at the “b” in y = ax + b form. In a graph, this is where the line crosses— or intercepts— the vertical y axis.
The y intercepts of the answer choices are
A) +15
B) -2
C) -3
D) +2

As a negative number furthest from zero, -3 is the y intercept with the least value.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept. Therefore, for A, the y intercept is 15, and for C it is -3. For B, the y intercept can be seen to be at -2, and for D it crosses the y axis at 2. Since -3 is the smallest of all of these, the correct answer is C. Hope this helps!
