Answer:

no, yes, yes, no, yes

Explanation:

You're looking for values greater than -1.5. All positive numbers will be greater than any negative number.

The two negative numbers among the answer choices are both to the left of -1.5 on the number line. They are less than -1.5, so are not greater than -1.5.

The negative numbers are No; the positive numbers are Yes.
