Start with the formula y=mx + b.

The equation listed above is y = -17. Since x doesn't appear the 'm' in mx must be 0 (the slope). So our equation is now y = 0x -17. To find the y intercept we put 0 in for x. We want to find where the line will cross the Y axis. y = 0*0 -17. That simplifies to Y = -17 (intercept).
