When you read slope you can also read it as rise over run. Rise is move up or down on the y axis depending if number is negative or positive. Run is move left or right on x axis depending if number is negative or positive.
Example: y =
Start at the y-intercept which is -5. On graph you can see the line crosses the y axis at (0, -5). From this point rise 10 then run 3 you'll end up at point (3, 5). Connect the dots of the two points and you'll see a line like the one in the problem.
