The quickest way to graph is to find the intercepts.
To find the x-intercept, set y=0 and solve for x.
3x-2y=-5
3x-2%280%29=-5
3x=-5
x=-5%2F3
(-5%2F3,0)

To find the y-intercept, set x=0 and solve for y.
3x-2y=-5
3%280%29-2y=-5
-2y=-5
y=5%2F2
(0,5%2F2

Plot those two points and join them with a line going through both points.
