The coefficiient of the first term (the - 3). AS its negative the grph starts at top left.

Devan · Answer 2

The coefficient of the first term.

If it's talking about the left end, then it'll be the first degree. So since it's to the third power, you'll have something that looks like x^3, which starts at the bottom left. The negative sign indicates a swapped axis. So it'll be the coefficient (which is - 3). That states it'll start from the top left and go downward. The + 3 is just a vertical shift.
