Slope form gives you a clear image of the graph automatically as soon as you see the equation.

In any given equation y=mx+b, m is the slope, which helps you visualize how steep the graph is and in which direction it goes (increases or decreases). b is the y-intercept, which is just a fancy term for where the graph intersects the y-axis. Using slope form helps you graph the graph way easier than using another form, such as standard form (Ax+By=C. What a mess!).
