The system of linear equations that may be used in order to solve this problem is as follows:

x + y = 37
2x + 3y = 95

This is considering that x is the number of bracelets sold and y is the number of necklaces.

The values of x and y in the equation are 16 and 31, respectively.

Thus, the answer is 16 bracelets and 21 necklaces.
