You are absolutely right.

2X+3y=3
3X-2Y=11
Using elimination method
3(2x+3y=3)  6x+9y=9
2(3x-2y=11)  6x-4y=22
subtracting the second equation from  the first one
13y=-13
therefore y=-1
substituting -1 in equation two
3x-2(-1)=11
3x+2=11
3x= 9
x=3
therefore -1 and 3 are the correct values of y and x respectively.
