    C

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The equation of a line in slope - intercept form is

    y = mx + c (m is the slope and c the y - intercept)

    Given

    y + 3 = 5 (x - 3) ← distribute right side

    y + 3 = 5x - 15 (subtract 3 from both sides)

    y = 5x - 18 ← in slope - intercept form

    with y - intercept c = - 18 ⇒ (0, - 18) → C
