The y intercept is the point along the y axis at which the line (or curve) intersects. So, if your the line graphed from your equation crosses the y axis at y=1, then 1 is the y intercept. x will always be equal to zero at the y intercept, so if you plug 0 in for x and solve the equation, you get the quantity of the y intercept.
