Question 5940
To find the slope of an equation - we need to convert the equation in the slope-intercept form 

  y = m*x + c   and compare values of `m` and `c`

  so that we can get the value of slope and the `y` intercept

 `m` is the slope of equation and `c` is the y-intercept

So converting the given equation in the slope-intercept form we get

y = 0*x + -1

On comparing we get values of `m` = 0   and  `c` = -1

That means the line has a slope 0 and the y-intercept is -1

Slope 0 means line is parallel to x-axis
