There are infinitely many points on this line (since it goes on forever in both directions). So you'll have to provide the list of choices.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Example:

Let's say you were given the point (2,3). This means x = 2, y = 3

Plug them in and see if we get a true equation

y = 2x - 9

3 = 2*3 - 9

3 = 6 - 9

3 = -3 ... which is FALSE, so (2,3) is NOT on this line.
