Given equation is
x+7y=0
we can rewrite it as
y= -\frac{1}{7}x                            -(i)
Now, we know that the Slope-intercept form of the line is 
y = mx+C                     -(ii)
Where m is the slope and C is some constant
On comparing equation (i) with equation (ii)
we  will get
m =- \frac{1}{7}  and C = 0
Therefore, slope and y-intercept are -\frac{1}{7} \ and \ 0  respectively
