Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know it's a linear equation and the slope is a whole number. Using point slope form we will write the equation:

y - y1 = m (x - x1) in which y1 is -7, m is 3, and x1 is -1

y - (-7) = 3(x-(-1))

y+7 = 3(x+1)

y+7 = 3x +3

Change to slope-intercept form:

y = 3x + 3 - 7

y = 3x = -4

the y intercept is -4
