(1/5, -3)
(-1, -5)
(8, 10)

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute point (1/5, - 3)

Substitute $x=\frac{1}{5}$ and $y = - 3$ into $-5x + 3y$. We get $-5\times\frac{1}{5}+3\times(-3)=-1 - 9=-10$.

Step2: Substitute point (-1, -5)

Substitute $x=-1$ and $y = - 5$ into $-5x + 3y$. We have $-5\times(-1)+3\times(-5)=5 - 15=-10$.

Step3: Substitute point (8, 10)

Substitute $x = 8$ and $y = 10$ into $-5x+3y$. Then $-5\times8 + 3\times10=-40+30=-10$.

Answer:

There is no such point among the given options that does not belong to the graph of the line. If there was a mistake in the last - point's $y$ - value (assuming it was meant to be something else), based on the work above for the points presented, all the points $( \frac{1}{5},-3),(-1,-5),(8,10)$ satisfy the equation $-5x + 3y=-10$. If the last point was mis - typed, re - check the $y$ - value for the point $(8,y)$ and substitute again to find the non - belonging point.
