Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slop to each other.
So first solve for y.
Slope will be the coefficient of x in y=mx+c form.
m is the slope. Then negative reciprocal this slope and in this case the answer is -1/5

Providing 1 mile is 5280 feet, then,

$v=63 miles/s=63\times5280 feet/s=332640\ \ \ \ feet/s$

It will travel,

$space=v\cdot t=332640\cdot 15/3600=1386\ \ \ feet$

in 15 seconds.
