    This is in gradient intercept form (or slope intercept form)

    y = mx + b

    in this case y = - 1.2x + 26

    so m (the slope) = - 1.2

    and the y intercept = 26

    I'm not sure what intercept they're asking for.

    if you wanted to find the x intercept, just substitute.

    y = 0 and find x.
