Consistency of Slope Measurements

A quality control technician is using a linear graph to track a manufacturing process. The trend line on the graph passes through the points (0,5)(0, 5) and (3,3)(3, 3). According to the standard rise-over-run procedure, what is the expected result regarding the final slope value if the technician chooses a different pair of points on the same line, such as (3,7)(-3, 7) and (6,1)(6, 1), to perform the calculation?
