To determine the total yardage for the quarterback after the two plays, we can simply add the yardage from each play together.
1. The quarterback first gets sacked for a 15-yard loss, which is -15 yards.
2. On the next play, he throws for a 5-yard gain, which is +5 yards.
Now we calculate:
-15 (yards lost) + 5 (yards gained) = -10 yards
So after the two plays, the quarterback has a total of **-10 yards**.
The correct answer is **-10**.
