draw a line wirh a positive slope and a negitive y- intercept?



Assume value of the slope that is positive and y-intercept is negative



m = 2 and b = -2



    y = 3x - 2





Here is the graph

Y-intercept at (0, -2), 

to locate the other point. use the slope.

m = 2 means move  two units up and 1 unit right 

Point is locate at (1, 0)



Draw a line passing the two points (0, -2) and (1, 0)
