The graph shown represents a parabola, and we are asked to determine the range of the function. 

The range of a function represents all the possible output values (y-values). 

### Analyzing the Graph:
- The parabola opens **upwards**, meaning its minimum value occurs at the vertex.
- The vertex of this parabola is at the point \((0, -3)\).
- Since the parabola opens upwards, the y-values start from \(-3\) and increase to infinity.

Thus, the range includes all values **greater than or equal to -3**. 

### Conclusion:
The correct option is **"all real numbers greater than or equal to -3"**.

Would you like further details or clarifications on this? Here are some related questions:

1. How do you find the vertex of a parabola from its equation?
2. What determines whether a parabola opens upwards or downwards?
3. How do you find the domain of a quadratic function?
4. Can the range of a parabola ever be all real numbers?
5. What is the significance of the axis of symmetry in a parabola?

**Tip:** For quadratic functions, the direction of the parabola (upward or downward) is determined by the sign of the coefficient of \(x^2\).

Which best describes the range of the graph?

Analyze the range of a quadratic function based on its graph. The range starts at the vertex y = -3 and includes all values greater than or equal to -3. This problem involves understanding how to interpret a parabola and its range.
