y can realistically be any positive number, since a negative number multiplied by a positive number's product is negative. a negative number will always be less than a positive number, in this case the positive number being 60.

a negative number multiplied by another negative number's product is positive, so as long as the negative numbers are less than -6 (because -10 times -6 is 60, and 60 is not less than 60) y can be negative.


I hope this helps!

when you divide or multiply by a negative, flip the sign
divide both sides by -10
flip sign

y>-6
