Explanation:

The equation 3x + y = 0 can be rearranged to y = -3x. This means that the graph of the equation is a straight line with slope -3 and y-intercept of 0.

The three points that are in the solution set are (-2,6), (-5,5), and (3,-9). Plotting these points on a coordinate plane and connecting them with a straight line, we can see that they all lie on the same line with slope -3:

[Graph not shown here, but a straight line with three points (-2, 6), (-5, 5), (3, -9) can be plotted with a slope of -3 and y-intercept of 0.]

From the graph, we can see that the line passes through the origin (0,0), which means that the y-intercept is 0. The slope of the line is -3, which means that the line has a negative slope and is downward sloping. The line separates the plane into two half-planes, one above the line and one below the line. The points above the line have y-coordinates greater than 0 and the points below the line have y-coordinates less than 0.
