Given a triangle of vertices


(-6,3),(-2,3),(-5,7)

Let A represent the triangle with the given vertices and B represent the reflection of A across the x-axis

The reflection rule across the x-axis is


(x,y)\Rightarrow(x,-y)

The reflection of the vertices will be


\begin{gathered} (-6,3)\Rightarrow(-6,-3) \\ (-2,3)\Rightarrow(-2,-3) \\ (-5,7)\Rightarrow(-5,-7) \end{gathered}


\begin{gathered} A\Rightarrow\begin{cases}(-6,3) \\ (-2,3) \\ (-5,7)\end{cases} \\ \\ B\Rightarrow\begin{cases}(-6,-3) \\ (-2,-3) \\ (-5,-7)\end{cases} \end{gathered}

The graph of triangle A and it's reflection B is shown below

Where A is the blue triangle and B (the reflection of A) is the black triangle

Hence, the right option is A
