  -23

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that as x increases by 36 from -72 to 36, y decreases by 24 from 25 to 1.

Increasing x from -36 by another 36 to zero will correspond to a decrease in y by another 24 from 1 to -23.

The y-intercept is -23.

_____

You could go to the trouble to use these observations to compute the slope as -24/36 = -2/3. Then you could pick one of the points and write the equation in point-slope form as ...

  y = -2/3(x +36) +1 . . . point-slope form with m=-2/3, (h, k) = (-36, 1)

  y = -2/3x -24 +1 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  y = -2/3x -23 . . . . . . . y-intercept is -23
