No. Because no can be -1, either the solution is positive or the person wasn't born.

Answer:

No, a negative age doesn't make sense.

Explanation:

We are asked to explain the given statement.

We know that when a infant is born, his/her age is one day. By the passing time their age increases as 6 months, 1 year and so on.

The age of a person can only be positive as how a person can have
-20 years old.

Since negative time doesn't make sense for real life, therefore, a negative solution doesn't make sense for a person's age.
