$y$ $y$ is a straight line with slope $\frac{3}{5}$ $3/5$ and $y -$ $y-$ intercept $- 2$ $-2$

$y = \frac{3}{5} x - 2$ $y = 3/5x -2$

The equation of a straight line with slope $(m)$ $(m)$ and $y -$ $y-$ intercept $(c)$ $(c)$ is:

$y = m x + c$ $y=mx+c$

So, in this example, $m = \frac{3}{5} and c = - 2$ $m=3/5 and c=-2$

The graph of $y$ $y$ is shown below.
