#y=m(x+8)#

Explanation:

Equation of a line passing through point #(x_1,y_1)# and having a slope #m# is #(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)#, irrespective of whether the point forms intercept on #x# or #y# axis or not.

Hence the equation of line forming intercept #-8# on #x# axis having a slope #m# is

#(y-0)=m(x-(-8))# or

#y=m(x+8)#
