Answer:

>

Explanation:

Do remember the three symbols :

> - Greater than

< - Less than

= Equal to

An analogy you can use to always do this question is to think of the sign as a hungry alligator, and it wants to eat a bigger portion, so the opening of the teeth will revolt towards the bigger number. But there is a problem here, we're dealing with is negatives, it is the opposite than positives. The lower the number is in a negative is the bigger number in general, because it's closer to 0.

Therefore :

-2 > -8
