Y = -2X + 6
The line has a slope of -2 and passes through the point Y=6 on the Y-axis.
-- From the point Y=6 on the Y-axis, move 1 to the right and 2 down. This brings you to the point (1, 4). Mark the point.
-- Place your ruler so that the point Y=6 and the point (1, 4) are both along the ruler's edge, and draw the line.

No, y=8 is a fixed value. A linear equation would look something like y=x+8 - That would produce a straight line graph if the values of x & y were plotted against each other on a graph.
The question contains an expression, not an equation. An expression does not have a graph. Furthermore, even if it were an equation, its form suggests that it would be a linear equation and a linear equation does not open in any direction.
Well I cant graph it for you but its a linear line some points would be (0,-1) (1,-2) (2,-3)(3,-4) (-1,0) (-2,1) (-3,2) and so on
The equation 0 equals 0 is an identity and contributes absolutely nothing to the part of the graph that you should shade or not. The tautological statement can be ignored.
To determine the trend of linear function graph or equation you would simply look at the slope of the line. This is represented by the m in the equation, f(x) = mx + b.
