A mathematical function is any algebraic relation where each value of input (usually shown as x) corresponds to only one value of output (usually shown as y). Therefore:
y = -5x+5
is already a function: each value of x will produce one value of y.
Sometimes the fact that the output is a function of the input means the expression is written as:
f(x) = -5x+5

The question states: "Rewrite the equation y = -5x +5 as a function of x." no longer "Rewrite the equation y = -5x +5 in terms of x." for sure, the respond is "B" because of the fact f(x) skill "function of x". merely replace that with 'y' and you have your self the respond, no brainer, remarkable?

This is a function. The only other way that I could think of you stating it is
f(x)= -5x+5

Just replace y with f(x)
f(x) = -5x + 5
----------------
Note:
You could take out the common factor of 5
f(x) = 5(-x + 1)
This is optional

y = f(x)
f(x) = -5x +5
