your graph shows a line, so you need to find the equation for that line
use slope-point formula:

where is a slope and is y-intercept
to find and , choose two points on a graph:
since a line goes through origin, one point is (,)
so, plug in and in

=>; so far equation is
a line also goes through the point (,)



and your equation is:

In answer to your question, b = 0 is exactly what it IMPLIES: b is EQUAL to 0, and CANNOT be written as b ≤ 0, since 

that indicates that b has values that are either EQUAL to 0, or is < 0. b has ONE and ONLY ONE value, and that's 0.
