Answer:

Positive numbers are greater than 0 and located to the right of 0 on a number line. Negative numbers are less than 0 and located to the left of 0 on a number line. The number zero is neither positive nor negative.

Answer:

There is nothing positive or negative about zero. Zero is just zero. It is NEITHER positive NOR negative. To the right of zero on number line are positive numbers and on the left of zero, lie the negative numbers on the number line.
