Place a point at (0,-5) because that is the y-intercept (the -5 on the vertical line)
Since the slope is negative two which can be re-written as -2/1 (rise/run) you go down two and to the right once or up two and to the left once, it doesn't matter which. Another point can be placed at (1,-7) or (-3,-1), it still doesn't matter which.
Then you can draw a line connecting the two points.
I hope this helps :)
