Answer:

y=3x-12

Explanation:

We need to find the m of y = mx+b which is the slope:

-3-(-6)/3-2 = 3 as our slope

We know have y = 3x+b.

If we keep applying slope to the point (2,-6) and go downwards. We hit (0,-12). That's our y intercept. So we replace b with our y intercept which is -12. We know get y = 3x-12
