The y intercept is AWESOME! It helps us to know...

• Where our line will end.

• If our line is positive or negative.

• Where to start graphing our line.

Knowing the slope of a line is very helpful! It can tell us if the line is...

• Positive

• Negative

• Will rise to the right.

• Will fall to the right.
