Given y = -3x + b, and point M (-2, 4):

Substitute the coordinates of Point M into the equation to solve for the y-intercept, b:

y = -3x + b
4 = -3(-2) + b
4 = 6 + b

Subtract 6 from both sides to isolate b:
4 - 6 = 6 - 6 + b
-2 = b

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the y-intercept (0, -2), is:

b = -2
