Use the two-point form of the equation of a line: y - y₁ = ((y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)) *(x - x₁).
Here, x₁ = 2; y₁ = -3; x₂ = -3; y₂ = -2. Substitute these into the formula, giving
y - (-3) = ((-2 - (-3))/(-3 - 2)) * (x - 2), or
y + 3 = ((-2 + 3)/(-5)) * (x - 2), or
y + 3 = (1/(-5)) * (x - 2), or
y + 3 = -(1/5)(x - 2), or
y + 3 = -(1/5)x + 2/5, or
y = -(1/5)x - 13/5.

Find the slop:
( difference between the y's coordinate / difference between the x's coordinate)
= (-2- -3)/ (-3-2) = -0.2
then:
take any pt. let me take (2, -3)
y- -3=slope*(x-2)
=> y+3= -0.2*x + 0.4
finally we get:
y = -0.2x - 2.6

= (-2- -3)/ (-3-2) = -0.2

=> y+3= -0.2*x + 0.4

y = -0.2x - 2.6
