Answer: None that are listed

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x and y-intercepts, you want to either set x=0 or y=0.

x-intercept

3x+2(0)=6          [multiply]

3x=6                   [divide both sides by 3]

x=2

Now, we know that the x-intercept is (2,0).

y-intercept

3(0)+2y=6          [multiply]

2y=6                   [divide both sides by 2]

y=3

Now, we know that the y-intercept is (0,3). This tells us that the answer isn't listed in the answer choices.
