Hi,
For this problem we are using slope intercept form, which is in the form y=mx+b, with m as the slope and b as the y-intercept. So we just need to plug in 2 as our slope and -2 as our y-intercept. When we do this we get the equation y=2x-2 (if your value for your y-intercept is negative, you have the form y=mx-b)for our final answer. Good luck and let me know if you have any more questions. :)

y = 2x-2 The "2" in 2x is the slope, and -2 is the y-intercept.
