First write it in the "slope-intercept" form : y = mx + c
Then the y-intercept is (0, c)

No a linear equation are not the same as a linear function. The linear function is written as Ax+By=C. The linear equation is f{x}=m+b.
The y-intercept of a linear equation is the point on the y-axis at which the line cuts.It could be found by plugging x = 0 in the given linear equation.For example,Consider 3x + 2y = 6. To find the y-intercept just plug x = 0 in the equation.3(0) + 2y = 62y = 6y = 3(0, 3) is the y-intercept of the linear equation 2x + 3y = 6.Note:In the same way we can find the x-intercept by plugging y = 0 in the given linear equation.
A linear equation can have only one zero and that is the value of the variable for which the equation is true.
