When x is equal to -2, the given equation can be rewritten as y = 3(-2) + 6 = -6 + 6 = 0.

Therefore, the correct value of y when x = -2 is 0.

The other options are incorrect because

B: When x is equal to -2, the equation becomes y = 3(-2) + 6 = -6 + 6 = 0, not 0 + 6 = 6 as option B suggests.

C: When x is equal to -2, the equation becomes y = 3(-2) + 6 = -6 + 6 = 0, not -6 + 6 = 12 as option C suggests.

D: When x is equal to -2, the equation becomes y = 3(-2) +
