The rate of change is -2 and the initial value when x=0 (y intercept) is -1.

An equation of this line in slope-intercept form is y = -2x - 1.

To identify the rate of change you can identify it by the following formula:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

You can input two points into the equation let's use the first two points.

$m=\frac{3-5}{(-1)-(-2)}$

Simplify to identify the slope (rate of change).
