Use constant and sub in points!

Explanation:

We know from the general formula (#y=mx+c or y=mx+b#) that the constant c or b is the y-intercept. There we can plot (1,0) as one point.

Then, if you wanted to plot, say, when the x co-ord is 1, we can sub this into the equation ---> #y=(-4*1)+1# so #y=-3#.

Use this method for all your points.
