No.

Negative numbers are not natural numbers.

Natural numbers are positive whole numbers.

1, 2, 3.... and so on.

Explanation:

Hey there!!

(-73) is not a natural number.

The reason is natural number always starts from 1 and ends at infinity. But as the given number is -73 it is below 1. So, it's not a natural number.

Hope it helps...
