You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y%2B3=-3%28x%2B2%29
Test your choice.
0%2B3=-3%28-1%2B2%29
3=-3%2A1
3=-3, FALSE

y=-3%28x%2B2%29-3
y=-3x-6-3
highlight_green%28y=-3x-9%29, and highlight_green%283x%2By=-9%29

Using those, the x-intercept is -3 for point (-3,0), matching choice d.
This automatically shows choice a is not on the line; and you know the line
has the point (0,-9).
