For this case we have that, the equation of the line in slope intercept form is given by:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Where:

m is the slope

b is the cut point with the y axis

If we have:

[tex]y-1 = -7 (x-3)[/tex]

We take it in the form [tex]y = mx + b[/tex] we have:

Knowing that [tex]- * - = +[/tex] and applying distributive property to the terms of the parenthesis:

[tex]y = -7x + 21 + 1\\y = -7x + 22\\So,\ b = 22[/tex]

Option D
