Hi Lyn,
graph on the following equation:
y = -x -2
Let x=0 and y is:
y=-(0)-2
y=-2 Plot (0,-2)
:
Let x=1 and y is:
y=-(1)-2
y=-3 Plot (1,-3)
:
Plot as many points as your teacher feels you need to, but for line you really only need two points.
Connect your points and you have this line:

Happy Calculating, Lyn!!!
