y + 5 = 0
y = -5
y = 0x-5
The equation is now in y = mx+b form where m is the slope. Since m = 0, the slope is 0.

y = -5 has a slope = 0.
.
That is because regardless of the value of 'x', from -infinity to +infinity, y = -5. In turn, that means the change in y = 0. Dividing 0 by any number has a result of 0.
.
This equation defines a horizontal line.
