Answer 1

it can never be positive
because displacement=final position-initial position

if it start from (+100) and reach at (-2) then D=-102

if it starts from origin then also be negative

and at last if it start in negatiVe axis and also reach in negative axis then also it will be negative for ex
starts from (-2) and reached (-5) then D=-3

so always negative
