Answer:

Explanation:

If a line with a slope passes through a point with a value such as in this one, which is (1,3), then it must have a y-intercept and a slope. The y-intercept is when the x-value's value is 0 but the y-value is more than 0.

(3,6) is on the line as it corresponds with the slope.

(0,0) is not on this line as the y-value nor the x-value has a coordinate, which is a requirement to make it an ordered pair.
