slope is the ratio of the difference in y values divided by the difference in x values
all vertical lines do not have a slope (undefined), while all horizontal lines have a slope of zeros.
x-intercept (also known as "zero") touches the x-axis
y-intercept (also known as "starting point") touches the y-axis
Rate of change is another way to say slope of a line
zero is the value of x when y = 0
