The line has equation

\vec r(t)=(4,-4,8)+(-1,4,-3)t

where t is any real number. (-1,4,-3)t is the line containing all scalar multiples of the vector (-1, 4, -3); we add (4, -4, 8) to shift the line so that it passes through this point while remaining parallel to the the line.

To get the symmetric form, we have

\begin{cases}x(t)=4-t\\y(t)=-4+4t\\z(t)=8-3t\end{cases}

Solving for t in each equation gives the symmetric form,

t=\boxed{4-x=\dfrac{y+4}4=\dfrac{8-z}3}

The line has intercepts in the coordinate planes wherever either the x, y, or z coordinate is 0.

xy-plane:

z=0\implies\begin{cases}4-x=\frac83\\\frac{y+4}4=\frac83\end{cases}\implies\left(\dfrac43,\dfrac{20}3,0\right)

yz-plane:

x=0\implies\begin{cases}\frac{y+4}4=4\\\frac{8-z}3=4\end{cases}\implies\left(0,12,-4\right)

xz-plane:

y=0\implies\begin{cases}4-x=1\\\frac{8-z}3=1\end{cases}\implies\left(3,0,5\right)
