Hi

Using the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b

  where m is the slope and b the y-intercept. 

-X+3Y+6=0   |expressing in terms of Y

  Y = (1/3)X +2  |slope m = (1/3) and y-intercept is Pt(0,2)

Note: as y increases/decreases by 1, x increases/decreases by 3

Plot Pt(0,2) and Pt(3,3) and connect with a line
