Answer:

-5

Explanation:

On a number line, there are negative and positive numbers.

The numbers -2, -4, and -5 are negative (see the little dash sign - ? that's negative).

2 is positive (you see no sign or a plus + before it).

The number line is a good way to learn negative and positive numbers.

go left, and the numbers go smaller

go right and they get bigger

-5 is the smallest since it is the most far left on the number line.
