---------------
Post the line you mean.
All lines cross at least one of the axes.

You'll have to extend the lines far enough in both directions so
that they will cross the axes. Remember lines theoretically keep
going forever in both directions, so they are bound to cross both
axis if they are not parallel to one of them.
