<u>slope</u> (m) can be found by counting rise over run. From (0,0) to (6,1) you go up (rise) 6 units and to the right (run) 1 unit. So, the slope is = 6
<u>y-intercept</u> (b) is where the line crosses the y-axis. It crosses when y = 0
Plug in slope (m = 6) and y-intercept (b = 0) into the slope-intercept formula:
