To factor the expression \(-6b - 15\) by dividing out the greatest common factor (GCF), we first need to identify the GCF of the coefficients \(-6\) and \(-15\).

The GCF of \(-6\) and \(-15\) is \(3\).

Now we can factor out \(-3\) from the expression:

\[
-6b - 15 = -3(2b + 5)
\]

So, the factored form of \(-6b - 15\) is:

\[
-3(2b + 5)
\]
