To answer this question, I assume that the equation is y = -12x - 5. The x -intercept of the equation is obtained by setting y equal to zero. 
                                  0 = -12x - 5
Thus, x = -5/12.
Then, for the y-intercept, let x be equal to zero.
                                       y = -12(0) - 5 = -5

Thus, the x and y - intercepts are -5/12 and -5, respectively.
