Answer:

This means that on average for every additional gram of protein, the food item will contain 6.7 additional grams of fat

The y intercept means that a food item with 0 grams of protein would have 6.7 grams of fat

Step-by-step explanation:

This means that on average for every additional gram of protein, the food item will contain 6.7 additional grams of fat.  Protein is on the x axis and fat is on the y axis.  We are looking for the y intercept.  (the place where it crosses the y axis)  The equation is y = .96x + 6.7   this is in the form y = mx +b  where b is the y intercept.  

The y intercept means that a food item with 0 grams of protein would have 6.7 grams of fat
