I factored it down like this
x^3 - 3x^2 - 40x
x(x-8)(x+5)
8,-5
I just can't seem to figure out which are right or wrong.

You factored the function correctly. You KNOW that the zeros are 0, 8, -5. Those are the same as the "roots" and "x-intercepts". Knowing the factorization and knowing (identifying) the roots of the function, you have no trouble finding which in the list of statements about H is true and which false.
