This relation is in the form of y = (2/3)x - 5, so we can find y by plugging in the x-coordinate into the equation.

Let's check each ordered pair:

1. When x = 6: y = (2/3)(6) - 5 = 4 - 5 = -1
(6, -1) is a valid ordered pair.

2. When x = 9: y = (2/3)(9) - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1
(9, 1) is not a valid ordered pair.

3. When x = -3: y = (2/3)(-3) - 5 = -2 - 5 = -7
(-3, -7) is not a valid ordered pair.

4. When x = 3: y = (2/3)(3) - 5 = 2 - 5 = -3
(3, -3) is not a valid ordered pair.

Therefore, the only valid ordered pair is (6, -1).
