You could multiply each term on both sides of the equation by a number which would make each term have integer coefficients. Or convert the decimal to a fraction equivalent.

Example: y = 0.2x + .25, You can multiply by 100 to get 100y = 20x + 25, or you could multiply by 20, to get 20y = 4x + 5, or just convert it to y = x/5 + 1/4
