First, let's determine how much money Anna has left after buying food. She starts with $370 and spends $150 on food:
\[
370 - 150 = 220
\]
Now Anna has $220 remaining to spend on books. The price of one book is $35. To find out how many books she can buy, we divide her remaining money by the cost of one book:
\[
\frac{220}{35} \approx 6.2857
\]
Since Anna cannot buy a fraction of a book, we round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the maximum number of books Anna can buy is:
\[
6
\]
So, the final answer is **6**.
\[
370 - 150 = 220
