You can put this solution on YOUR website!
it's unclear what is your question here
if it is to plot these points, (-6,-5) and (-4,3), on coordinate system, then you have


if you have to find an equation of the line which passing through given points, then you have
y=mx%2Bb
first use points to find a slope m

m=%28y%5B2%5D-y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D-x%5B1%5D%29.........plug in (-6,-5) and (-4,3)
m=%283-%28-5%29%29%2F%28-4-%28-6%29%29
m=%283%2B5%29%2F%28-4%2B6%29
m=8%2F2
m=4

y=4x%2Bb...........use one point to find b=> (-4,3)
3=4%28-4%29%2Bb
3=-16%2Bb
b=3%2B16
b=19
=> your equation is y=4x%2B19
