The x-intercept occurs when y = 0
Thus 6x = 9 so x = 9/6 = 3/2
The y-intercept occurs when x = 0
Thus -y = 9 so y = -9
Plot the two intercepts and connect and you've graphed the lines!

6x - y = 9
6x / 9 - y /9 =1 . . . . divide all by 9 . . make the right portion = 1
x / (9/6) - y / 9 = 1
x intercept = 9/6 =3/2
y -intercept = -9

Crosses y axis at (0, - 9)
Crosses x axis at (3/2 , 0)

to find your x intercept, set y equal to zero and solve for x
to find your y intercept, set x equal to zero and solve for y
y-intercept is y=-9
you can find the other
