Does every line has a y-intercept?

No because a line can be a vertical line so say you have the equation x=5. Then a vertical line would pass through the x intercept 5 and be vertical thus not having a y intercept. All horizontal lines have a y intercept


What is the y intercept of a vertical line?

There is not any. A vertical line is parallel to the y-axis so they cannot meet or they are the same line. In either case there is no intercept.


Can a line have no y intercept?

Yes, if it's a vertical line.


How do you find the slope intercept of a vertical line?

A vertical line on a graph has infinite slope and no y-intercept. Its equation is [ x = a number ]. The number is the line's x-intercept.


Can a linear function does not have a y-intercept?

X = 3 A vertical line not having a Y intercept.


Explain why the equation of a vertical line cannot be in slope-intercept form?

A vertical line on a graph has an infinite slope, and no y-intercept.


What is the y-intercept for a line?

The point where a straight line crosses the y (vertical) axis.


Does every line has a slope and a y-intercept?

A vertical line has neither.


What goes on the vertical line on a scientific graph?

The y intercept


Is the y intercept a vertical line through the vertex of a parabola?

No.


How do you find a negative slope intercept of a vertical line?

A vertical line does not have a slope - negative or positive. It is not defined. A vertical line has no y intercept and, if its equation is x = c (for some number c), then the x-intercept is (c, 0).


Is it possible for a line to not have a y intercept?

Yes, but only of the line is vertical. (It would then be written as x = a, where a is a constant. For example, the line x = 8 does not have a y-intercept. All lines in the form y = mx+b will have a y-intercept.)
