Answer:

No integer solution

Step-by-step explanation:

xy=-12

x<xy<y

One of the integers must be negative and one positive: x<-12 & y>0

12 can be written as the product of 2 integers in several ways: 12=1*12=2*6=3*4

-12*1 seems to be the only integer solution, which is not accepted as they are both excluded.

If we select any integer smaller than -12, then it needs to be paired with the positive number smaller than 1. And this will be a rational number between 0 and 1. The negative pair will be <-12.

Example: -24*0.5=-12

So there is no integer solution.
