The y intercept is when x = 0.

I can't quite see the numbers, but it looks like that at x = 0, y = -5.

So our y intercept is -5.

I agree with catmg...hard to see

The slope of the line = [ 6 - -9 ] / [ -4, -1 ] = 15 / - 5 = -3

This means that when x changes by - 1 , y rises by 3

So....I believe the y intercept should be [ 1 -1 , -9 + 3 ] = [ 0 , -6 ]

Ohhh, I should've thought about using the slope to find the intercept, would've been a lot more precise.

Thanks
