Step-by-step explanation:
Find the y-values corresponding to x-values of 0 and 1, then plot those points and draw a line through them.
For x=0, ...
y = -4·0 -1 = -1 . . . . the point is (0, -1) . . . the y-intercept
For x=1, ...
y = -4·1 -1 = -5 . . . . the point is (1, -5)
The attached graph shows these points and the line through them.
