Answer:

The y -intercept of a graph is the point where the graph crosses the y -axis. (Because a function must pass the vertical line test , a function can have at most one y -intercept . ) The y -intercept is often referred to with just the y -value.

Explanation:

Y - intercept represents the position of a point on y-axis or when a line passes through y-axis, it, actually, passes through a point on y-axis. And that point is called the y intercept. It is usually represented by and as a point, it is represented as.

It's called the "y intercept" and it's the y value of the point where the line intersects the y- axis. For this line, the y-intercept is "negative 1." You can find the y-intercept by looking at the graph and seeing which point crosses the y axis. This point will always have an x coordinate of zero.

Hoped this helped! :D
