use point slope formula
y-y%5B1%5D=m%28x-x%5B1%5D%29 where m is a slope and x%5B1%5D and y%5B1%5D are coordinates of given point
slope m=1
passing through the point, (-5,-1)
y-%28-1%29=1%2A%28x-%28-5%29%29
y%2B1=%28x%2B5%29
y=x%2B5-1
y=x%2B4-> your line

find one more point that lie on a line, plot both points and draw a line through

x|y
