Part I — two features
1. Slope = 1/2. The line rises to the right slowly: for every 2 units right it goes up 1 unit.
2. y-intercept = (0, 5). The line crosses the y-axis at y = 5 (it also crosses the x-axis at (-10, 0)).

Part II
Any line with slope = −2 is perpendicular (negative reciprocal of 1/2). For example: y = −2x. More generally: y = −2x + b for any real b.
