Answer:

y= -3x-16

Step-by-step explanation:

slope intercept form is written as y=mx+b.  m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.  -3=m

we know that (-5,-1) is 5 points away from the origin, and that the slope is -3, so 5 times -3 equals -15.  subtract 15 from -1 (y-coordinate) in order to get the y-intercept (when x=0).
