What's the slope?

What’s the slope for y=-2/3-7 ?
​

I'm going to assume you mean:
y = (-2/3)x - 7

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b
m is the slope of the line   
{the number in front of the x}
b is the y-intercept   {the number without a variable}

In y = (-2/3)x - 7
the slope is -2/3   {the number in front of the x}

If it was in fact, y = -2/3 - 7,
then the slope would be 0, because there is no x.
