Let's just start with slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
==> plug in the point (x, y) = (-7, 8) and slope m = 0
8 = 0(-7) + b
==> simplify b/c first term on right disappears
8 = b ... THIS IS OUR Y-INTERCEPT
Now, let's just plug our slope and y-intercept into the equation:
y = 0(x) + 8
==> zero times x is zero and just disappears
y = 8 ... ANSWER
So, your answer is y = 8, which is just a horizontal line where all points on the line have the same y-value of eight.

slope form is y --8 = 0 as m = 0
y = 8
intercept form is y/8 = 1
