a. At the start, months = 0; employees = 2. In 6 months, months = 6; employees =14
(0,2)
(6,14)
b and c. 2 employees/month is the slope
This is how many employees the company would have to add per month to get 14 employees at the end of 6 months
E = 2 + r*m
where E is the number of empoyees, r is the rate per month at which employees are added, and m is the number of months.
