This could be a trick question, or it might have been stated incorrectly by the source (i.e. teacher, book, etc.)
Let's assume its a trick question.

x + 6 = 0
x = -6

this is a vertical line with x-intercept -6. The slope of all vertical lines is undefined, so the equation cannot be stated in slope-intercept form.
