Help With Plotting only select Bars

I'm looking to only plot specifically selected (continuous) group of Bars. Eventually these will be made variables depending on the 5EMA changes.
For simple example
Input s1 = -5 Start
Input e1 = -3 End
define nb=(e1-s1)+1 number of bars 3

Without going into all the coding detail I have calculated the best fit linear regression line between these points and have generated among other items the following;
b1 Slope
yint1 Y-Intercept

I tried the formula for a line y=mx+b and tried to incorporate BarNumbers(3) but I kept getting a line across the entire chart
I need help on the plot statement that would only show the "straight" line for Bars -5,-4,-3.
Let me know if I need more information

need more info,
not sure what bars -3,-4,-5 is

is that a reference from the last bar?
somewhere on here i have a study that draws a line , on several bars after the last bar. could change the offsets to find a group of bars before the last bar.

I really meant the bars to be positive i.e. looking back at 3 days in the past and drawing the line for only those days. Thanks I'll look at the study
