x-intercept is at #(-1,0)#
y-intercept is at #(0,-6)#

Explanation:

# y = -6x -6 #. Putting #x=0# in the equation we get y-intercept as #y=-6*0-6 = -6 :. # y-intercept is at #(0,-6)#

Putting #y=0# in the equation we get x-intercept as #0=-6*x-6 :.x = -6/6= -1:. # x-intercept is at #(-1,0)# graph{-6x-6 [-20, 20, -10, 10]} [Ans]
