Just in case you yet need understanding or the solution...
Using the coordinates (-2,3) and (0,1) you can find the slope
slope =
The slope is
...
y=mx+b
Using the coordinate (-2,3), plug in x and y to solve for b
3 = + b
3 = 2 + b
b = 3-2 = 1
...
Therefore, the linear equation is
y = x + 1
..
Confirm this using the other coordinate (0,1)
1 = + b
b = 1
..
