So would the outer surface also be +5E-6?

Because the charge in the center is (-), that would make the charge closest to it (inner) opposite in sign (+5E-6) leaving the outer surface zero.

I would think that the charge on the inner shell would be +5E-6, so would that make the outer 0 to keep an overall neutral charge on the shell?

It doesn't say. The first part of the question says, "A thin spherical shell of radius 15.0cm with total charge of 33.0E-6 C distributed uniformly on its surface." If there was a ball of charge of -5.0E-6...

A shell with a charge of -5.0E-6 C at the center. What will the charge be on the inner surface of the shell? The outer?
