(-3,5),(-2,-6)
slope = (-6 - 5) / (-2 - (-3) = -11 / (-2 + 3) = -11/1 = -11

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -11
use either of ur points...(-3,5)...x = -3 and y = 5
now sub and find b, the y int
5 = -11(-3) + b
5 = 33 + b
5 - 33 = b
- 28 = b
so ur equation is : y = -11x - 28...but we need it in standard form Ax + By = C

y = -11x - 28.....add 11x to both sides
11x + y = -28 <== standard form
