Well, let's take a moment to appreciate these numbers. Negative 8 is actually less than negative 2 because when you move to the left on a number line, you're going in a smaller direction. It's all about perspective, and each number has its own special place. Just remember, every number is important in its own way.

In terms of numerical value, negative 8 is indeed less than negative 2. When comparing two negative numbers, the one with the greater absolute value is considered "smaller" or "less than" the other. In this case, negative 8 has a greater absolute value than negative 2, making it the "smaller" or "less than" number.
