slope
For a straight line graph, if the equation of the graph is written is the slope-intercept form, then the line goes up and to the right when the coefficient of x is positive.
An equation has an equal sign, which means that we know what the variable is equal to :)
Yes, the slope of a line is the coefficient of the x-term in the line.
The equation of a line is said to be in slope intercept form if it is written as: y = mx + c where the coefficient of y is 1. When expressed in this form, the slope of the line is m and the y-intercept is c.
Direct proportions may be represented by a straight line through the origin, with the equation y = kx. The gradient of the line is the constant of proportionality and is a measure of the change in the "dependent" variable for a unit change in the "independent" variable. In the case of an inverse proportionality, the graph is a hyperbola with the equation y = k/x. The constant of proportionality, k, is a measure of the change in the reciprocal of the "dependent" variable for a unit change in the "independent" variable.
It is the slope of the line as for example y=3x+6 whereas 3 is the slope and 6 is the y intercept.
The angular coefficient, also known as the slope of a line, measures the rate at which a line is rising or falling. It indicates how much the dependent variable changes for a unit change in the independent variable in a linear relationship. Mathematically, it is represented by the value of m in the equation y = mx + b, where m is the angular coefficient.

True.
Your statement is correct. y=mx+b when m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
The "slope-intercept" form of a line is an equation of the form:y = mx + b The "m" term - the coefficient you are asking for - is the slope of the line. The "b" is the y-intercept.
The "slope-intercept" form of a line is an equation of the form:y = mx + b The "m" term - the coefficient you are asking for - is the slope of the line. The "b" is the y-intercept.

The strength of the linear relationship between the two variables in the regression equation is the correlation coefficient, r, and is always a value between -1 and 1, inclusive. The regression coefficient is the slope of the line of the regression equation.
The coefficient of the x term gives the gradient of the slope.

Yes, but only when the coefficient of y is 1. For example if the equation of the line is 3y = 2x + 5, then the slope is not 2. The equation has to be re-written as y = 2/3*x + 5/3 whence the slope IS 2/3
