Answer:

Right

Explanation:

when looking at a number line, you will see 0, and you will notice all numbers go from 0 to the right in an increasing manner, so it would be 0, then 1, then 2, then 3....

its the other way for negative numbers tho, so (from a line of negative numbers) -3, then -2, then -1, then 0

a good way to remember is to imagine a race, you want to gain progress and go further away from the start (0) so the RIGHT way to go would be UP the number line and INCREASE your progress
