Answer:

<

Explanation:

-6 is smaller than 7 while 7 is greater than -6, denoted by <.

-6 < 7.

On a number line, -6 comes to the left side of 0, six places after 0, denoting that -6 is smaller than 0. We know that 7 is greater than 0 and comes to the right side of 0. This shows that -6 is smaller than 7.
