The slope of a graph provides general information about a graph. It tells you how much the y value of the graph increases (or decreases, if the slope is negative) for a given increase in x value. if you look at the general equation of a graph y = a x + b the value "a" represents the slope and the "b" value represents the value of y when x = 0. When the graph is not a straight line, the discussion gets more complicated, however the slope still describes changes in the value of the graph (you have to use calculus for this situation.)
If x2 is negative it will have a maximum value If x2 is positive it will have a minimum value
Goes from the origin to the North East (up and to the right).
A linear graph shows a linear equation in which the value of one variable depends on the value of the other variable.
It is negative 5.
y=ax is a line that goes through the origin. If a is negative the left side is up. If it is zero it is level. If it is positive the right side is up.

No.
A negative slope is a slope occurs whenever an increase in the x value of the equation of a line causes the y value to decrease. If you're looking at the graph, the line with slope downwards from left to right.
That is a result of an absolute value equation. So an Absolute Value Graph

vertex
slope
Select any value for one of the variables in the graph and solve the equation to get the other variable.
