I CAN'T GRAPH IT BUT I CAN GIVE YOU TWO POINTS AND THE SLOPE OF THE LINE. THUS:
USING THE LINE EQUATION Y=mX+b. WHERE m=SLOPE & b=Y INTERCEPT.
X+Y=6
Y=-X+6 IS A LINE WITH A SLOPE OF (-1) & A Y INTERCEPT OF 6 OR THE POINT (0,6)
NOW TO FIND ANOTHER POINT WE SET Y=O AND SOLVE
0=-X+6
-X=-6
X=6 OR THE OTHER POINT IS (6,0)

This is the graph of x + y = 6

This is a linear equation and hence the graph is linear.

The table of values for the given linear equation is:

x 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
y 6 5 4 3 2 1 0

Hence, the graph.
