Find the slope using the formula [ y2-y1/x2-x1 ].

-9-(-12)/-15-(-24)

3/9

1/3

Find the y-intercept using the formula [ y = mx + b ].

y = 1/3x + b

-12 = 1/3(-24) + b

-12 = -8 + b

-4 = b

Use (18, 2) to see if the line passes through it

y = 1/3x - 4

2 = 1/3(18) - 4

2 = 6 - 4

2 = 2 TRUE

Thus, the line does pass through (18, 2).

Best of Luck!
