Number line is a straight line on which numbers are marked and are separated at regular intervals. A number line can be used for both addition and subtraction. Addition is done by counting to the right while subtraction is done by counting to the left.

Given that the football team lost 5 yards in each of their three downs, this is the same as 3(-5) = (-5) + (-5) + (-5)

Hence since it is negative we move to the left. Starting from 0, we move 5 units to the left 3 times, this gives -15
