One way is to set up two equations using the general formula for straight line.
y = mx + b
1st equation is 6 = m(-1) + b
2nd equation is 2 = m(4) + b
Now solve those two equations for m and b.
y = mx + b
1st equation is 6 = m(-1) + b
2nd equation is 2 = m(4) + b
Now solve those two equations for m and b.
