A) Positive, because the products (−2)(4) and (−6)(−3) are negative, and the product of two negative numbers is positive

B) Positive, because the products (−2)(4) and (−6)(−3) are positive, and the product of two positive numbers is positive

C) Negative, because the product (−2)(4) is positive and the product (−6)(−3) is negative, and the product of a positive number and a negative number is negative

D) Negative, because the product (−2)(4) is negative and the product (−6)(−3) is positive, and the product of a negative number and a positive number is a negative number
