Not all negative numbers are integers.

Remember that integers, in general, are whole numbers. That does not include any irrational numbers, decimals, fractions, or anything requiring a decimal point or a part of a whole number.

In that case, excluding 0, which is neither positive nor negative, the only negative integers would be the set of all of the negative whole numbers, and nothing else in between.
