Answer:

m > -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide your inequality by the coefficient of m, which is -3. Doing that requires you reverse the comparison symbol:

(-3m)/(-3) > (15)/(-3)

m > -5

_____

The comparison symbol is reversed whenever an inequality is multiplie or divided by a negative number. You might be able to see why when you look at the relation between a couple of integers:

-2 < -1

2 > 1 . . . . . . multiply the above by -1

Multiplying by a negative number effectively reflects the comparison across the center of the number line. As we know from looking in a mirror; reflection reverses left and right, so numbers that were farther to the right (more positive) are now farther to the left (more negative).
