y = mx + b
where:
m = slope of the line (rise/run)
b = y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis)

It depends on the line. Is it a straight line, a line defined by a polynomial, exponential, logarithmic or other function?
A horizontal line has a slope of zero. The equation of a horizontal line is y = a.
When it is a linear equation.
It is a linear equation.
The equation of a line is y=mx+b, when m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.
When a straight line equation is parallel to another equation the slope remains the same but the y intercept changes
