See answers below

Given: $8 b + 7 b - 4 - 6 b$ $8b + 7b - 4 -6b$

There are $4$ $4$ monomials in the given expression:
$8 b, 7 b, - 4, - 6 b$ $8b, 7b, -4, -6b$

The like terms that can be added/subtracted are:
$8 b, 7 b, - 6 b$ $8b, 7b, -6b$

The coefficients are: $8, 7 and - 6$ $" "8, 7 " and "-6$

The constant term is $- 4$ $" "-4$

In simplified form:

$(8 b + 7 b - 6 b) - 4 \Rightarrow 9 b - 4$ $(8b + 7b -6b) - 4 => " " 9b - 4$
