Slope Intercept form of a line is:
where m=slope, and b=Y-intercept.
You are given the slope in the problem, so you know m
You can figure out the Y-intercept pretty easily from the point that is given. By definition, the Y-intercept of a line occurs when the X coordinate is zero. From the given point, you know that -3 is the Y-intercept (the b in the equation.) Now, just plug in the values, and you are done:
Good Luck,
