To find the y-intercept, substitute 0 in for x to get . Similarly, for the x-intercept, substitute 0 in for y to get . You can look at the following graph to see if the line passes through (-1,6), but it's much easier to just substitute -1 for x into the equation to get . Therefore, the line does indeed pass through that point. Here's the graph:
