To solve $-3 + 5$ using the number line, follow these steps:

1. Start at $-3$ on the number line.
2. Move 5 steps to the right (because you're adding a positive number).

If you begin at $-3$ and move 5 steps to the right:

• From $-3$ to $-2$ is 1 step,
• To $-1$ is 2 steps,
• To $0$ is 3 steps,
• To $1$ is 4 steps,
• To $2$ is 5 steps.

Thus, $-3 + 5 = 2$.
