Y = 2x + 50,
It's easier to look at the first set of numbers and then make a formula from there. so we need x to be zero and y to be 50, which is why the formula listed works.
Answer - yes it can
Say you have y=2x with no y intercept (b)
You can still write it as y=2x +0 or assume the y intercept (b) is zero by writing it as y=2x
You can use slope formula to find slope of given points.
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-6-11)/(-3-5)
m = -17 / -8
Cancel out minus sign in both nominator and denominator. Thus,
m = 17/8
Hence, the slope is 17/8
