If a line has a slope of 0, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates a horizontal line, meaning there is no change in y as x changes.

If a line has a negative slope, what does that indicate about the line's direction?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, meaning the line goes downwards from left to right.
