If you look at the line, the line intercepts the y-axis at -4. So now you take the two points and subtract them. -5-0 is -5. 1+4 is 5. It would be plus 4 because a negative and subtraction makes addition. So that means your slope is -1. So the equation would be y=-1x-4.

You're Welcome.

slope$$=\frac{ -5-0 }{ 1+4 }=\frac{ -5 }{ 5 }=-1$$
y-intercept=-4
eq. of line is y=-x-4
or eq. of line through (-4,0) is
y-0=-1(x+4)
y=-x-4
