You can start with the slope-intercept form:
Find the slope:
Substitute the x- and y-coordinates from the two given points: (-1,-5) and (-4,-9).
Evaluate.

So now you have:
Substitute the x- and y-coordinate values from any one of the tw given points and solve for b.
Evaluate.
Add to both sides.
The final eaquation is:
