For the equation \( y = 3x + b \) to be proportional, it must have a constant ratio of \( y \) to \( x \) that does not depend on \( b \). This means that there should not be a constant term (like \( b \)) in the equation.
In other words, for the equation to be in the form of \( y = kx \) (where \( k \) is a constant), the value of \( b \) should be zero.
Thus, the value for \( b \) that would make the equation proportional is:
\[ b = 0 \]
