Because
1. Positive integers are greater than negative integers, and
2. Division by a positive number preserves the order.
Rational numbers can be negative or positive.
No, not all negative numbers are rational. There are many negative numbers that are irrational, just like the positive numbers.
Yes. It can also be negative in the numerator. Both positive and negative numbers (as well as zero) can be rational numbers. Both positive and negative numbers can be irrational numbers. Both positive and negative numbers (as well as zero) can be integers.
Any rational positive number is still rational when you make the same number negative.
It the two rational numbers have different signs, then the answer will be negative, otherwise it will be positive.
It is because of the way in which positive and negative numbers are defined.
Rational numbers can be negative or positive.

Yes. It can also be negative in the numerator. Both positive and negative numbers (as well as zero) can be rational numbers. Both positive and negative numbers can be irrational numbers. Both positive and negative numbers (as well as zero) can be integers.
Yes, they can.
Most of the time yes, positive or negative whole numbers count as rational numbers. So do positive or negative fractions.
A number line is an effective tool for modeling and comparing positive and negative rational numbers by providing a visual representation of their relative positions. Positive rational numbers are located to the right of zero, while negative rational numbers are positioned to the left. By marking specific rational numbers on the line, one can easily see which numbers are greater or lesser based on their distance from zero. This visual aid helps clarify the concept of magnitude and direction, making it easier to understand comparisons between positive and negative values.
Any rational positive number is still rational when you make the same number negative.
It the two rational numbers have different signs, then the answer will be negative, otherwise it will be positive.
They are the infinite number of rational numbers between 0 and +6
Not at all. The class of "natural" numbers are all positive, but the classes of "real" numbers and "rational" numbers include negative numbers.
Yes, they are.
