Yes, integers are ...-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3... all of which have an end and therefore terminate.

Yes!

Decimal numbers that have finite number of digits after decimal point are called terminating decimal numbers.

For example,

1.2, 2.3376, 4.79 are a few examples of terminating decimals.

Every integer could be written as a decimal number.

Like as follows:

1 could be written as 1.0

2 could be written as 2.0

-3 could be written as –3.0.

We have not changed the value of the numbers but we have converted them in to decimal numbers.
