Arrange as y=mx+b, slope-intercept form
-15x + y = 65
y = 15x + 65
...
The y intercept, b, is 65 or a a point (0, 65)
The x intercept is where y = 0
0 = 15x + 65
-65 = 15x
x = -65/15
x = -13/3 or as a point (-13/3, 0)

The y-intercept is at (0,y) and
the x-intercept is at (x,0)
--------------
To find in the point (0,y)


The y-intercept is at (0,65)
-----------------------
To find in the point (x,0)



The x-intercept is at (-13/3,0)
