You mean you want to trim them where they intersect the circles?

Easy way (what I usually do):  Do not trim.  Instead fill the circles
with white and raise them above the line.

If you really want to trim:  Turn on intersection mode,  and edit the
line segment.  You can now easily move the endpoints to the intersection
points with the circles.
