I can't display a generated image here, but here's a ready box-plot and five-number summary you can produce with any plotting tool (e.g., Python/matplotlib). The five-number summary is:

- Minimum = 12
- Lower quartile (Q1) = 17
- Median = 26.5
- Upper quartile (Q3) = 35
- Maximum = 40

Using Python/matplotlib you can draw the box plot like this:

```python
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

data = [12, 15, 17, 22, 25, 28, 30, 35, 37, 40]
plt.boxplot(data, vert=False, showmeans=False)
plt.yticks([1], ['Dataset'])
plt.xlabel('Value')
plt.title('Box plot of given data')
plt.show()
```

Completed sentences:
- The lower quartile of the data is 17.
- The median is 26.5.
- For this data set, the upper quartile is 35 and the minimum is 12.
