you have the equation of the line as y = mx+b, the slope of the graph is the number multiplying the x. answer is -5.
-5 so the rise can be either -5 run 1 or 5 rise and -1 run
The slope is -5. And, the y intercept would be 8. So, you would place the graph on the y axis at positive 8, and go up 5 and to the left one space on a graph!
