Needs to be in slope-intercept form

6x - y = 0

The answer I got was y = -6x + 0
This is how I got it:
6x - y = 0 - 6
- y - 6x
y = 6x + 0

Please help!

You have the right idea!
slope-intercept form ----> y = mx + b

Below are the 2 ways that it could be worked:

Example 1:
6x - y = 0
6x - y - 6x = 0 - 6x
- y = 0 - 6x
- y / -1 = (0 - 6x)/ -1
y = 0 + 6x
y = 6x + 0 or y = 6x

Example 2:
6x - y = 0
6x - y + y = 0 + y
6x = y
y = 6x

an easier way to do this would have been

6x - y = 0
6x = y
