When the variables x and y satisfy an equation of the form y = mx + c, it can be said that there is a linear relation between them. The graph of y against x will then be a straight line with gradient m. The constant c gives the value of y at the point at which the line crosses the y-axis, i.e. c is the intercept of the line on the y-axis.
