The most straightforward way is to use a Dreamcast emulator on your PS3. You'll need to jailbreak your PS3 first, which can void the warranty and might brick your console if done incorrectly. After jailbreaking, you can install an emulator like Reicast and load your Dreamcast game ROMs. Just make sure to backup your system before diving into this!

You can't play Dreamcast games directly on a PS3 without tampering with the hardware. However, using an emulator after jailbreaking the PS3 might work, but it's risky!

From my experience, it's a bit of a hassle. Jailbreaking your PS3 and installing Reicast or another compatible Dreamcast emulator is necessary. Be careful with this process as it involves risks and could potentially damage your console.
