C: −6 > −4
D: −3 < −4

Answer 1

The answer for this question is A: −8 < −4

If you have 0 on the number line and label the points - 4 would be closer to 0 than -8 . The greater number is the number that is closer to the 0.

Answer 2

Looking at the line graph any - number to the left of the -4 would be less than -4.

This would make A true, -8 is less than -4
