Is there a relationship between the sign (positive or negative) of the slope of a line and the angle the line makes with the x-axis?






  if you graph y = 3x+5,  versus the graph of y = -3x+5 ....
 
is there a relationship between the sign (+/-) of the slope of a line and the angle the line makes with the x axis???? Im sure it is straight forward however, I cannot seem to wrap my head around this question.
