You can put this solution on YOUR website!
It's your y-intercept, graph it.
(0,25)
Another point would be
x=-2 and y=25%2B15%28-2%29=-5
(-2,-5)
Plot both the points then connect them with a line.

It's a very steep curve so mind the x and y scales used in creating the graph. They may be misleading.

If I had made them equal lengths, it wouldn't have been as interesting.
