So what?

-3 is greater than -4 and (-3)/(-4) = 3/4 is a positive proper fraction.

3 is greater than -4 and 3/(-4) = -3/4 is a negative proper fraction.

3 is greater than -2 and 3/(-2) = -3/2 is a negative improper fraction.

4 is greater than 3 and 4/3 is a positive improper fraction.


Thus, the fraction can be negative or positive, proper or improper.
