To do this problem, you have to umm....   plug the numbers into each of the given equation until L.H.S. = R. H. S

the answer to this problem is..
D.     y = -6x - 5

Lets check
  (2,-17)
Substituting y = -17 and x = 2 , we get,
-17 = -6 (2) -5
-17 = -12 - 5
-17 = -17

(5 , -35)
Substituting y = -35 and x = 5 , we get,
-35 = -6 (5) - 5
-35 = -30 - 5
-35 = -35

So, the answer is D
D is the correct answer because if you plug in the points they equal the y value 

-6(2) -5 = -17 
-17 = -17 
-6(5) - 5 = -35 
-35 = -35
