The second integer is negative.
The second integer is positive.
The second integer is greater than the first integer.
The second integer is less than the first integer.

Answer 1

The second integer is greater than the first integer

Answer 2

c)The second integer is greater than the first integer

Explanation:

In mathematics, a number line can be defined as a straight line with numbers placed at equal intervals or segments along its length.

A number line can be extended infinitely in any direction and is usually represented horizontally, with 0 in the middle and negative numbers on the left and positive numbers to the right of zero.

Thus a number line can be used to represent both positive and negative rational numbers as well as integers.

The numbers to the left are less than that to the right

Hence here the option c) is right
