Answer:

He is correct!

Explanation:

If Hector said that the absolute value of -6.7 degrees C and 6.7 degrees C hold the same relation ship with 0 degrees C then he would be incorrect

(the absolute value of -6.7 degrees C and 6.7 degrees C DO hold the same relation ship with 0 degrees C)

But because you have a DEGATIVE term and a POSITIVE term they DO NOT HOLD THE SAME RELATIONSHIP WITH 0 degrees C. and that is what he said,...

Chow,...!
