What does it mean if a line has a negative slope?

Back

A negative slope means that as the x-value increases, the y-value decreases, indicating a downward trend.

Start by plotting the y-intercept (0, 2). Then use the slope (-3) to find another point: from (0, 2), go down 3 units and right 1 unit to (1, -1). Connect the points.
