graph{y=-6+x [-2.75, 17.25, -4.68, 5.32]}

Explanation:

For this, you first solve the equation by starting with moving the x in the equation to the other side

x-y=6 ----> -y=6-x

Then divide the whole equation by negative on to get y by itself

(-y=6-x)/-1 ----> y=-6+x

Now that it is in slope-intercept form pick a number for x and plug it into the equation.

y=-6+1 ----> y=-5

This means that when x is 1 the y value is -5. You can keep doing this to graph the equation
