• In algebra, we use a line called a number line to denote all the real numbers in a single line representation.
• In a number line, the numbers situated on the right side of zero are positive numbers and the numbers situated on the left side of zero are called negative numbers.
• For the negative numbers, one negative number is greater than another negative number only if the first number is closer to zero than the other one.
• Here in this problem, we know -7 is closer to zero than -10 in the number line. So, -7 is greater than -10.
