It's zero right?

The equation of a straight line is y= mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. In this case, then, m=-2, the slope.

No.Remember the equation of a line is y=mx+c
where m is the slope.Your equation has no constant(C) but that could be zero. so therefore m (slope) is -2.
remember m is attached to x.
y=-2x +0
slope,M=-2

The slope it -2. If it were just y=-2, not y= -2x, then it would 0.

No, it's -2. When y = ax + b, a is the slope.

no, it is -2

nope, it is -2. the slope in y=mx+b form (the form your equation is in) is the "m"
