Answer:

D

Explanation:

If the number is positive, the absolute value is the same as the number. If the number is negative, the absolute value is just a positive version of that number. So the absolute value of 0 is 0, -18 is 18, -31 is 31, and -44 is 44. Out if these, D has the greatest absolute value, so it would be D
