Answer

See graph

Work Step by Step

The slope of the graph near $x=-2$ is very high, but it quickly decreases towards zero. At $x=0$ the line tangent to the graph has a slope of zero so the derivative at $x=0$ must also be zero. Then the derivative decreases all the way towards negative infinity.
