Can an airplane flying above 35,000 feet be heard on the ground?
Yes
It doesn't even has to be very silent around you.
But because of the speed of sound, you will hear the aircraft later. Here is the approximate time, the sound needs to reach you:

Speed of sound at MSL: ~340m/s
35.000 ft in m: ~10660m
10660 / 340 =
~ 31s

That means you will maybe hear the aircraft but you are not going to spot it where the sound comes from.
Note that this is not an exact value, as speed of sound varies with air density and temperature, which both change the higher you are.
