See the solution process below.

Because the slope of the line is #0#, by definition, this is a horizontal line.

Horizontal lines have the form: #y = a# Where #a# is the same value for #y# for every value of #x#.

Because the #y# value in the point from the problem is #-6# we can write the equation as:

#y = -6#
