The problem you've provided is asking to analyze the graph of the function \( y = f(x) \) and select the correct statement regarding integrals over different intervals based on that graph. Here's a step-by-step explanation of how to approach the solution:

### Translation of the Problem
The text in the problem can be translated as:
"On the graph, the function \( y = f(x) \), defined on the interval \([-8, 6]\), is shown. From the given statements, choose the correct one."

The choices are:
a. \( \int_{-5}^{0} f(x) \, dx > \int_{0}^{2} f(x) \, dx \)
b. \( \int_{0}^{5} f(x) \, dx < 0 \)
c. \( \int_{-5}^{0} f(x) \, dx > \int_{2}^{6} f(x) \, dx \)
d. \( \int_{-5}^{0} f(x) \, dx < \int_{2}^{6} f(x) \, dx \)

### Analysis of the Graph
- The graph shows the function \( f(x) \) over the interval \([-8, 6]\).
- Positive areas of the graph (where \( f(x) > 0 \)) contribute positively to the integral, while negative areas (where \( f(x) < 0 \)) contribute negatively.

#### Integral Regions:
1. **\( \int_{-5}^{0} f(x) \, dx \):**
   - This interval corresponds to a portion of the graph where the function oscillates both above and below the x-axis.
   - It contains both positive and negative contributions, but mainly negative as seen from the graph.

2. **\( \int_{0}^{5} f(x) \, dx \):**
   - The function from 0 to 5 is mostly negative.

3. **\( \int_{0}^{2} f(x) \, dx \):**
   - This interval contains a part where \( f(x) \) is positive from 0 to about 1, and negative afterward until \( x = 2 \).

4. **\( \int_{2}^{6} f(x) \, dx \):**
   - This region has both positive and negative areas as well.

### Evaluating the Choices:
#### Option a: \( \int_{-5}^{0} f(x) \, dx > \int_{0}^{2} f(x) \, dx \)
- The area from \(-5\) to \(0\) seems to be mostly negative.
- The area from \(0\) to \(2\) is mixed but overall negative, as the negative part is larger.
- This comparison is not clearly valid based on visual inspection.

#### Option b: \( \int_{0}^{5} f(x) \, dx < 0 \)
- This is correct because the function is below the x-axis between 0 and 5, so the integral is negative.

#### Option c: \( \int_{-5}^{0} f(x) \, dx > \int_{2}^{6} f(x) \, dx \)
- Both integrals likely have mixed contributions, and from visual inspection, it does not appear that the integral from \(-5\) to \(0\) is larger.

#### Option d: \( \int_{-5}^{0} f(x) \, dx < \int_{2}^{6} f(x) \, dx \)
- This may be correct since the area from \(2\) to \(6\) has positive contributions that might make it larger than the area from \(-5\) to \(0\).

### Conclusion:
The correct answer is **b**: \( \int_{0}^{5} f(x) \, dx < 0 \), because the function is entirely negative over that interval.
