Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Equation Type

The given equation is \( y = -5 \). This equation is in the form \( y = c \), where \( c \) is a constant.

Step 2: Determine the Line Orientation

Since the equation is of the form \( y = c \), it indicates that the graph represents a horizontal line. This means that for all values of \( x \), the value of \( y \) remains constant at \( -5 \).

Final Answer

The graph of the equation \( y = -5 \) is a horizontal line. Thus, the answer is \\(\boxed{\text{horizontal line}}\\).
