-1lb/6wk = -1/6 lb/wk
that is the slope
y = 148 - x/6

Same question as this.

why are you repeating it ??
btw, it said he loses one pound per week for 6 weeks
so the equation could be written
y = -x + 148 , x ≤ 6
"the for 6 weeks" simply limits the domain of the function so the results stay within logical limitations.
