Yes, y=-5x+3 is a linear function. We know that by two factors. First, if you plot the function, you find that it draws a straight line, hence the term linear. Second, if you inspect the non-constant terms, you find that all of the are in the first power, i.e. there are no "squareds", "cubes", square roots", etc. This also makes it s linear function.
