Yes, it does. Every time there are variables in direct or inverse relationship, there is a constant of proportionality.
x=12 and y=10
The slope of an inverse relationship
Y=k/x where k is the constant of proportionality is an example of indirect or inverse variation. They are the same thing.
If the variables are in direct or inverse proportion then yes; otherwise no.
