Hi,         

note: the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b

  where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.  

y = -3x-5   Slope m = -3 and y-intercept is Pt(0,-5)blue line

y = -x+1    Slope m = -1 and y-intercept is Pt(0,1) green line

Note:  m < 0 for both lines, both slant to the left with blue slanting more sharply
