graph{y=-2/3x-2 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Explanation:

#y = -2/3x-2#

You put a point on #-2# on the #y#-axis. Then you go up #2# and to the left #3# because the left means negative. #((+2)/(-3))#

Or you can go down #2# (negative) and to the right #3# (positive).
#((-2)/(+3))#

You can't go left and down #((-)/(-))#or up and right #(+/+)# because the that will give a positive and the slope is negative.
