$Slope = Gradient$

$Gradient = -5$
$Intercept = -5$

$y=-5x-5$ is in the form of the equation of a straight line

$y=mx+c$

Where

$m$ = gradient of the straight line
$c$ = point at which the line crosses the y-axis
$y$ = y-coordinate on the line
$x$ = x-coordinate on the line

$:.$ $m=-5$ and $c=-5$
