"Slope" IS a description of a line. Modifiers might be "steep", "positive", "negative", and "rapid". Another single term is "gradient".
Explanation:
"Slope" itself is "rise over run", or how quickly the line moves up or down relative to the x-axis as the value of x changes.
A gradient is really just another name for slope, not a description OF a slope.
