Answer:

The point does not lie on the line

Explanation:

Find the slope of the equation with rise/run

This gets you -1/-1 = 1

The equation will be y = x + 3, given the y intercept at (0, 3)

Plug in the point (2, 6) to see if it works in the equation

6 = 2 +3

\\eq 5

The point does not lie on the line
