Answer:

It is an integer.

It is rational.

Explanation:

A whole number is in the set

0, 1, 2, 3...

This set starts at zero and only includes zero and the positive numbers. So the given number is NOT a whole number.

It IS an integer. Integers include positive and negative numbers. That is, whole numbers and their opposites.

The number IS rational. That is, it can be written as a ratio:

-560114/1

Since it is rational, it is not irrational.
