Remember that the point-slope form of a line is:

[tex]y-k=m(x-h)[/tex]

For a line with slope m and that passes through point (h,k)

Now, let's work on the line we're given. SInce the x-intercept is 6, we know that the line passes through (6,0).

Let's calculate the slope m :

[tex]m=\frac{3-0}{5-6}\rightarrow m=\frac{3}{-1}\Rightarrow m=-3[/tex]

Now, using point (5,3) we can get the following point-slope form for the line:

[tex]y-3=-3(x-5)[/tex]
