Hello.
This is the graph:

The boundary line is the line which is ... I guess, preventing the shaded part to go any further. Basically, it's the line you'd graph as a regular equation, but based on if it's greater than or less than, you shade it accordingly. You rearranged the inequality so it's shaded "less than". A point that's on the x-axis is (4,0), or x=4, y=0. A point on the boundary line and on the y-axis is (0,-2), or x=0,y=-2.
