the y coordinates are the same i.e. -1,
so the line is parallel to the x axis and passes through -1 on the y axis.
its slope is parallel to the x axis.

jazideols' answer: what he said isnt correct, the line would be parralel to the y-axis and any line parralel to the y-axis has no slope. So no slope is the answer. You can find this by using the formula m=(X1-X2)/(Y1-Y2) in your case it would be (7-(-2))/(-1-(-1))=9/0. If the zero were on top then the slope would be 0

m=[7-(-2)]/[-1-(-1)]=9/0=infinite
That's right because the line is parallel with the y-axis.
Sorry for the English, it’s not my mother tongue.

m=(x1-x2)/(y1-y2)
m=(7+2)/(-1+1)
m=9/0
so your slope is undefined because the denominator can't be 0.
