Explanation:

Let us start by assuming #y=5x- 1#.
Now the equation becomes

#|y|<16#

This means #y# can take a value between #(-16,16)#. The points #-16 and 16# are excluded. Corresponding range in #x# can be independently found by using the relationship between #y# and #x#.
The range of #x# is #(-3,3.6)#.
