<reasoning>

Identify the standard forms of linear equations

Using the Slope-Intercept Form knowledge point
\[
y = mx + b
\]

Define point-slope form

The point-slope form of a linear equation represents a line passing through a specific point \((x_1, y_1)\) with a slope of \(m\):
\[
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
\]

Match with the given options

Comparing the definitions:

• \(y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\) is the point-slope form.
• \(y = mx + b\) is the slope-intercept form.

<mcq-correct>(A) \(y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\)</mcq-correct>
<mcq-option>(B) \(y = mx + b\)</mcq-option>
