To determine the length of a line segment, we can use the distance formula.
The distance formula is given by:
\[d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}\]
In this case, the coordinates of the first point are (-3,-2) and the coordinates of the second point are (0,2).
Using the distance formula, we get:
\[d = \sqrt{(0-(-3))^2 + (2-(-2))^2} = \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5\]
Therefore, the length of the line segment is 5 units.
The correct answer is: \boxed{5 \text{ units}}.
