    The graph of the line goes down as we move to the right

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since the slope is negative, that means the quotient "rise/run" is a negative value.

    As we move to the right (with a positive increment for the "run"), the rise must be negative to give a negative value to the quotient if those two numbers,

    A "negative" rise implies that instead of an actual "rise" of the line, we observe a DROP which leads to smaller values in the vertical axis.
