### Educational Content: Graph Intercept Identification

---

**Instructions:** State the \( x \) and \( y \)-intercepts of the line in the graph.

---

#### Graph Description:
The graph displays a coordinate plane with the \( x \)-axis and \( y \)-axis both ranging from -5 to 5 in intervals of 1. A red diagonal line spans across the graph from the top left to the bottom right.

- **The x-axis** ranges from -5 to 5.
- **The y-axis** ranges from -5 to 5.
- The line intersects the x-axis at \( (3,0) \) and the y-axis at \( (0,-3) \).

---

#### Intercepts:

- **\( x \)-Intercept:** \( (3, 0) \) 
- **\( y \)-Intercept:** \( (0, -3) \)

---

#### How to Identify Intercepts:

1. **\( y \)-Intercept:** Locate where the red line crosses the \( y \)-axis (vertical axis). The coordinates at this point are the \( y \)-intercept.

2. **\( x \)-Intercept:** Locate where the red line crosses the \( x \)-axis (horizontal axis). The coordinates at this point are the \( x \)-intercept.

---

This graph and the instructions are part of a practice activity to help students understand and identify the intercepts of a linear equation on a coordinate plane. It is a fundamental skill for analyzing linear equations and understanding their graphical representations.
