Draw a big letter T on your paper. One column is for and the other is for .
Pick a value for . It can be anything you like, but generally small integers make for easier arithmetic. Write that value in the column.

Calculate the value of that results from your selection for . Write that value in the column across from the value of .

Repeat the process for as many different values of that will satisfiy your teacher. If it was me, you would only have to do two rows in your table because two points uniquely determine a line. But you need to follow your teacher's directions in this regard.
