Calculus - Paramaterize lines?

I've been going through my notes and can't find any info on this so I'm hoping there is someone out there who knows how to do this!

Calculus Question

Consider the line in the x,y - plane given by the equation y=2.2x - 1.9

x and y are both in km

Suppose Jim starts at the point on the curve where x = 0

Jim walks (approx) North East along the line at a rate of 6.2km/hr

1. Parametrize the line based on distance traveled (s).

2. Parametrize the line based on time traveled (t).

Thanks for the help guys!
