Answer:
Slope: -2/3
Y Intercept: 0,-3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, use the formula (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
(1-(-1))/(-6-(-3))
-2/3
So the slope is: -2/3
If the slope is 3/2, then the using the formula of y=mx+b, we can find the y intercept (b)
y = -2/3x + b
insert any point of x and y
-1 = -2/3(-3)+b
-1=-2+b
so b = -3
thus, the Y intercept is 0,-3
