I dont understand the problem

Answer:
equation of a line:
y = mx+c
1) find the gradient, m
[tex]m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} [/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{ - 4 - ( - 4)}{ - 10 - 1} [/tex]
[tex]m = 0[/tex]
2) find y-intercept, c using coordinate (1,-4)
y = mx + c
-4 = 0(1) + c
c = -4
the equation of line:
y = mx+c
y = 0(x) + c
y = c
y = -4
