Ratios are proportional if they represent the same relationship. One way to see if two ratios are proportional is to write them as fractions and then reduce them. If the reduced fractions are the same, your ratios are proportional. To see this process in action, check out this tutorial!

The y intercept of this function is always (0, a).
This is because when we place 0 in for x (which is the only way it'll be on the y-axis, we get 'a' as a result. This is because of the rule that raising anything to the 0th power will result in the number 1 and multiplying anything by 1 gives us the same number. See the work below for the example.
F(x) = a*b^x
F(0) = a*b^0
F(0) = a*1
F(0) = a
And for an example with a random number, we'll use a = 5 and b = 3
F(x) = 5*3^x
F(0) = 5*3^0
F(0) = 5*1
F(0) = 5
No matter what a and b equal, the intercept will be the a value.
