You can rewrite the equation like this my friend
y =  \frac{2x - 12}{3}
So for X axis equation is y = 0 (y will be zero for every point on x axis)
Now take y = 0, 
 \frac{2x-12}{3} = 0
2x - 12 = 0
x =  \frac{12}{2} = 6
So it cuts at x axis at (6,0)
Similarly for Y axis equation is x = 0
y =  \frac{2(0)-12}{3} = -4
So it cuts at y axis at (0,-4)
