Answer:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x-2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information, we can use the point-slope form to find the equation for the line:  [tex]y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})[/tex]

[tex]y-(-4)=\frac{1}{3}x(x-(-6) )[/tex]

Isolating y and combining like terms gives us [tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x-2[/tex]
