Consider the linear equation in standard from 5 x plus 3 y is equal to negative 15 What is the y -intercept?

The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis, so x = 0. Substitute 0 for x in 5x + 3y = -15: 3y = -15, which gives y = -5. The y-intercept is (0, -5), so the correct choice is the point (0, -5).
