See below

Explanation:

The $+ 2$ $+2$ tells us that the y-intercept is $2$ $2$ .
When you multiply any number by $0$ $0$ , you still get $0$ $0$ .
Therefore, the point ${0, 2}$ ${0,2}$ is on this line.
Next, let's choose a value for $x$ $x$ that is simple. I will choose $3$ $3$ .
If $x = 3$ $x=3$ , then
$- 1.5 x$ $-1.5x$ becomes $- 4.5$ $-4.5$ and so
$- 4.5 + 2 = - 2.5$ $-4.5+2=-2.5$
$therefore$ the point ${3,-2.5}$ is on this line.
