If two is greater than 5 then it does not matter which side the sign is facing.

The logic of the question demands that the second part of the answer is required to be true only if the first part is true. Since the first part "2 is greater than 5" is patently false, then according to ogic, it does not matter what the second part says.

By the way, the greater/less than sign always points to the smaller number. One way to remember that is that there are two (angled) lines in the symbol. The smaller number is on the same side as the smaller distance between these two lines.
