No.
Two coordinates define a point. You need two pairs of two coordinates to define two points and, therefore, a slope.
Points: (-3, -1) and (3, -2) Slope: -1/6
You need two coordinates, not one, to specify a point. To calculate the slope, simply calculate (difference in y-coordinates) / (difference in x-coordinates).
If you have the coordinates of two points, say P = (a,b) and Q = (c,d), then slope = (b-d)/(a-c) that is, the difference in the y coordinate of the two points divided by the difference in the x coordinate of the points taken in the same order.

Positive slope.
If you mean points of: (5, 0) and (6, 2) then the slope works out as 2
Points: (-3, -1) and (3, -2) Slope: -1/6
The slope for a line between two points is (difference of y-coordinates) divided by (difference of x-coordinates). That is, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). It doesn't matter in what order you take the points.
Calculate the difference of the y-coordinates, and divide it by the difference of the x-coordinates. That is the slope.
You need two coordinates, not one, to specify a point. To calculate the slope, simply calculate (difference in y-coordinates) / (difference in x-coordinates).
slope = (delta y) / (delta x). That's shorthand for: slope = (difference in the y-coordinates) / (difference in the x-coordinates). For two given points with coordinates (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope is (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2).
Points: (-1, 2) and (3, 3) Slope: 1/4
No because the slope of a line can be positive or negative
Points: (5, -3) and (8, -5)Slope: -2/3
Points: (6, -7) and (5, -9) Slope: 2
