If I can offer a suggestion ... You ought to look back in your book, or notes,
or homework, and recall what "intercept" means, and what one looks like.

The "y-intercept" of an equation is the point where
the graph crosses the y-axis.
On this graph, the line crosses the y-axis at y=5 .

The "x-intercept" of an equation is the point where
the graph crosses the x-axis.
On this graph, the line never crosses the x-axis at all.
(That DOESN't mean the x-intercept is zero.  It means there isn't any.)
