Which of the following is the slope-intercept form for the equation of a line?
A) $y - y _ { 1 } = m \left( x - x _ { 1 } \right)$
B) $A x + B y = C$
C) $y = m x + b$
D) $A x + B y + C = 0$

The slope-intercept form for the equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Choice A is the point-slope form of a line, choice B is the standard form of a line, and choice D is also the standard form of a line but with a constant added. Therefore, only choice C fits the slope-intercept form.
