The answer would be (3,5). The point (6,5) is in the second quadrant. If you are moving to the left, that means you are altering the x-coordinate in the point. X-coordinates change when you move horizontally and y-coordinates change when you move vertically. Moving to the left causes the x-coordinate to decrease to the number 3, making the point change from (6,5) to (3,5).
