Answer

no $x$-intercept $y$-intercept is at $(0, -6)$ Refer to the graph below.

Work Step by Step

Recall: The graph of a line whose equation is in the form $y=k$ is a horizontal line whose $y$-intercept is $(0, k)$. The line has no $x$-intercept unless the equation of the line is $y=0$. Thus, the $y$-intercept of the graph of $y=-6$ is at $(0, -6)$. The graph has no $x-$intercept.
