The equation of the line is given in the point-slope form:

\[ y + 3 = -\frac{3}{7}(x - 2) \]

In this form, the slope \( m \) can be directly identified. The slope is the coefficient of the \((x - 2)\) term on the right side of the equation.

From the equation, the slope is:

\[ m = -\frac{3}{7} \]

Therefore, the slope of the line is \(-\frac{3}{7}\).
