Check the picture below.

of course, that's the slope simplified, now, taking a peek at the non-simplified slopes that are shaded, the larger triangle will have a larger "run" and a larger "rise" and thus a larger slope than the smaller one.

So we can say that from the origin to A, the non-simplified slope is larger than from A to B.
