Long explanation:
'~(으)ㄹ까요?' is a grammar form in Korean which is used when someone is offering a suggestion or making a proposal. This sentence ending is used when the speaker wishes to propose something altogether with the person they're talking to. For verbs that end with a vowel, only 'ㄹ까요?' is added, if it ends a consonant, '을까요?' is used.
