To determine the loan amount remaining after 9 years using the provided line of best fit equation \( y = 15,413 - 1,635x \), we need to substitute \( x = 9 \) into the equation.

\[
y = 15,413 - 1,635(9)
\]

Calculating the value:

\[
y = 15,413 - 14,715
\]
\[
y = 698
\]

Thus, the amount left on the loan after 9 years is **$698**.
