Below

When plotting points, you just need to find the x and y intercepts

When $y = 0$ $y=0$ ,
$0 = 2 x + 5$ $0=2x+5$
$x = - \frac{5}{2}$ $x=-5/2$ $(- \frac{5}{2}, 0)$ $(-5/2,0)$

When $x = 0$ $x=0$ ,
$y = 0 + 5$ $y=0+5$
$y = 5$ $y=5$ $(0, 5)$ $(0,5)$

Plot your two points on the graph and join them together
graph{2x+5 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
