No. Integers are not closed under division because they consist of negative and positive whole numbers. NO FRACTIONS!
No.

For a set to be closed under an operation, the result of the operation on any members of the set must be a member of the set.

When the integer one (1) is divided by the integer four (4) the result is not an integer (1/4 = 0.25) and so not member of the set; thus integers are not closed under division.
