The original equation is
The m stands for the slope, and the b stands for the y-intercept.
Slope is and the y-intercept is the place the line intersects the y-axis.
So, you start first by plotting (0,4) because that is your y-intercept.
Then count (if you are using graph paper) to up three and to the left two because you have a negative slope. The connect the dots and draw arrows on the ends of the line.
So, your graph should look like this:
