Graph:
5x-y+=+31
5x%2B6y+=+-11
Convert both to slope-intercept form: y = mx+b.
y+=+5x-31
y+=+-%285%2F6%29x-11%2F6
graph%28400%2C400%2C-5%2C10%2C-32%2C5%2C5x-31%2C-%285%2F6%29x-11%2F6%29
From the graph, the solution is: (5, -6)
Since the system has at least 1 solution, this is a "consistent" system.
