3x + 5y < 15
rearrange it so that y is on one side by itself:

5y < 15 -3x
y+%3C+3+-+%283%2F5%29x

graph y+=+3+-+%283%2F5%29x

graph%28200%2C200%2C+-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C+3+-+%283%2F5%29x%29
the region below the line is the answer, since every point in the region has a y value smaller than 3+-+%283%2F5%29x
