To calculate the slope of line B, we can use the formula for the slope between two points:

\[
m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
\]

From the image, the two points on line B are:

- \((-2, 5)\)
- \((0, -1)\)

Substituting these into the slope formula:

\[
m = \frac{-1 - 5}{0 - (-2)} = \frac{-6}{2} = -3
\]

So, the slope of line B is:

\[
\text{slope} = -3
\]
