Answer: No

Solution:

Substitute the values of x & y into the first equation
6 -(-1) = 3
6 + 5 is NOT equal to 3
Therefore we can say this is not true
For this to be true, when substituting the values of x & y, the equation must be true for BOTH equations. Since it’s not true for the first equation it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not for the other equation.

I hope this helps!
