Equation of straight line in intercept form=\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}=1

 where a and b are the intercepts on the axis. 

  In intercept form we need 2 parameters a and b to specify a  straight line  

 Slope-Intercept Form  y=mx+c    where m=tanθ 

 and θ is the angle made with positive x axis  and c is the intercept on y axis 

   So, we need two parameters 'm' and 'c' to specify a straight line 

Hence, the correct option is b
