graph{y=-2/3x-2 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Explanation:

$y = - \frac{2}{3} x - 2$ $y = -2/3x-2$

You put a point on $- 2$ $-2$ on the $y$ $y$ -axis. Then you go up $2$ $2$ and to the left $3$ $3$ because the left means negative. $(\frac{+ 2}{- 3})$ $((+2)/(-3))$

Or you can go down $2$ $2$ (negative) and to the right $3$ $3$ (positive).
$(\frac{- 2}{+ 3})$ $((-2)/(+3))$

You can't go left and down $(\frac{-}{-})$ $((-)/(-))$ or up and right $(\frac{+}{+})$ $(+/+)$ because the that will give a positive and the slope is negative.
