      (Show Source): 
You can put this solution on YOUR website! m=		  2/ 3 
 Plug value of  the slope  and point 			(	6      	,	-5	) in
 Y 	=	m	x 	+	b
 -5.00	=	4    	+	b
 b=	-5	-	4
 b=	-9
 So the equation  will be
 Y 	=	 2/3x -9
 y=	  2/ 3	x  +	-9
 
 Assume values of x and plug in the equation to get values of y.
 Plot the points
 x	0	6	3	-3
 y=	-9	-5	-7	-11
 (x,y)	(0,-9),(6,-5),(3,-7),(-3,-11)
