Parallel to Y-axis
Parallel to X-axis
None of these

Solution
Parallel to X-axis
Explanation:
The y co-ordinate of all the points (−5, 5), (6, 5), (−3, 5) and (0, 5) is 5. All these points lies on the line y = 5, which is parallel to the X-axis.
Thus, the line which includes the points (−5, 5), (6, 5), (−3, 5) and (0, 5) is parallel to the X-axis.
