in the equation y=mx+b where y is the y-axis, x is the x-axis, m is the slope, and b is the y intercept. You can also write the equation in standard fore, or point-slope form.

What is it called when the equation is graphed and it is a straight line?

When an equation is graphed and produces a straight line, it is referred to as a linear equation. Linear equations typically take the form (y = mx + b), where (m) represents the slope and (b) is the y-intercept. The straight line indicates a constant rate of change between the variables.
