Answer:

Sometimes

Explanation:

SOMETIMES, An integer is less than its opposite and greater than 0.

This is because a negative integer has a positive opposite, hence a negative integer will be less than its opposite.

However, a positive integer also has a negative opposite so it will be greater than its opposite.

For example, a negative integer of -5 is less than a positive integer of 5 which is it's opposite and at the same time, a positive integer of 5 is greater than its opposite which is negative integer of -5.

Also, even though a positive integer is greater than 0, a negative integer on the other hand is less than 0
