The equation of the line is given as \( y = -x + 6 \).
In this equation, the general form is \( y = mx + b \), where \( m \) represents the slope and \( b \) represents the y-intercept.
From the equation \( y = -x + 6 \):
- The slope \( m \) is \(-1\).
- The y-intercept \( b \) is \(6\).
Thus, the correct answer is: The slope is −1, and the y-intercept is 6.
