To determine which of the given coordinates represents a solution to the equation \(6x - 5y = 30\), we can substitute each pair of coordinates into the equation and see if it holds true.

1. For \((0, -5)\):
\[
6(0) - 5(-5) = 0 + 25 = 25 \quad \text{(not a solution)}
\]

2. For \((0, -6)\):
\[
6(0) - 5(-6) = 0 + 30 = 30 \quad \text{(is a solution)}
\]

3. For \((-5, 0)\):
\[
6(-5) - 5(0) = -30 - 0 = -30 \quad \text{(not a solution)}
\]

4. For \((-6, 0)\):
\[
6(-6) - 5(0) = -36 - 0 = -36 \quad \text{(not a solution)}
\]

The only coordinate that satisfies the equation \(6x - 5y = 30\) is \((0, -6)\).
