Technically the number 0 can never be positive or negative. Imagine two pieces of land separated by a river, these pieces of land are connected by the bridge. On the Right piece of land the numbers are positive while on the Left they are negative. The bridge is the number 0 serving only as a metaphorical bridge. Think of the number 0 as neutral, neither positive or negative.
