$y$ $y$ -intercept at $(0, - 8)$ $(0, -8)$ .

$y = - 4 x - 8$ $y = -4x -8$

The $y$ $y$ -intercept of a straight line $y = m x + c$ $y=mx+c$ is given by $c$ $c$ .

Here $c = - 8$ $c = -8$ . so the graph intersects at $(0, - 8)$ $(0, -8)$ with a gradient $m$ $m$ , in this case $- 4$ $-4$ .

graph{y = -4x-8 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
