Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

arrow head is 15 feet because it is above sea level making it positive

bone 721 feet is also positive because anything positive is above sea level

clay is zero because it is at sea level so it is not positive or negative

necklace 462 is above sea level

woven basket is -1,200 because it is below sea level
