x-intercept = (0,0)
y-intercept = (0,0)

The x-intercept will be when $y = 0$ $y=0$ . If we solve for this we see that $x = 0$ $x=0$ so the point (0,0) is the x-intercept.

The y-intercept will be when $x = 0$ $x=0$ . If we solve for this we see that $y = 0$ $y=0$ so the point (0,0) is also the y-intercept.
