Are negative numbers bigger than positive numbers?

Nope. Negative numbers are smaller that positive numbers.

the number line looks like this.

-5_-4_-3_-2_-1_0_1_2_3_4_5

So the further the number is to the right the bigger the number. (positives)
The further a number to the left is a smaller number (negatives)

Good Luck! :)
