Let us solve (-3) + 6, using the number line.

Since negative -3 is written first, we start from -3. '+' sign after -3 denotes that we need to add a number to -3. Since the value increases on the right side of the number line, while adding a number, we will have to move to the right on the number line. Since we are adding 6, we will have to move 6 steps on right.
