The line with a slope m cuts the y-axis at the point (0, b). The value b is called the y-intercept of the line.

There is no slope nor intercept because there is no equation, simply an expression.
I shall do this one , but you must do the rest otherwise you will not learn. 2y = 8x - 2 is the given eq'n/ The straight line form is y = mx + c'. 'm' is the slope/gradient of the line 'c' is the y-intercept. So divide both sides by '2' ; this will result in 'y = ' Hence y = (8/2)x - 2/2 y = 4x - 1 is the straight line form of y = mx + c. So the slope is m = 4 The y-intercept is c = -1 NB for all linear equations this is the method. NNB Linear eq'n may appear in various forms. 2y = 8x - 2 2y - 8x = -2 2y - 8x + 2 = 0 y - 4x + 1 = 0 etc., So you need to algebraically rearrange into the y = mx + c form However, if there are powers of 'x' or 'y' it is NOT a straight line. Hope that helps!!!!
A line of best-fit.
A straight line, a telephone line, a shipping line, a fishing line.
A line intersect is a point on a line where another line or object crosses the line.
