The following statements correctly describe y-intercepts:
1. **The y-intercept of a function is the point where the line intersects the y-axis.**
2. **The y-intercept of a function is the point at which x = 0.**
3. **The y-value of the y-intercept is the same as the starting value, b.**
The other statements are incorrect:
- **The y-intercept of a function is always 0.** (This is false; the y-intercept can be any value.)
- **The y-intercept of a function is always positive.** (This is false; the y-intercept can be negative, zero, or positive.)
- **The y-intercept of a function is always negative.** (This is false; the y-intercept can be negative, zero, or positive.)
- **The y-intercept of a function is the point at which y = 0.** (This is false; the y-intercept occurs when x = 0, not y = 0.)
