You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x - y = -2
y - x = 2
so y will be two greater than x
that means that you will draw a dioganal line which will create a 45 degrees angle with the x axis. That means it will be parallel to x=y but instead of passing the origin it will pass (0,2) which is the "2" on the y axis.
