No. All positive numbers are greater than zero and all negative numbers are less than zero. Therefore, all positive numbers are greater than all negative numbers.

That said, there is a such thing as absolute value, which is how far a number is from zero. For example the absolute value of -10 is 10. The absolute value of a negative number can be greater than that of a positive number.

The sum of a positive number and a negative number is positive when?

The sum of a positive number and a negative number is positive when the magnitude of the positive number is greater than the magnitude of the negative number. In other words, if the positive number is larger than the absolute value of the negative number, their sum will be positive. For example, if we have 5 (positive) and -3 (negative), their sum is 2, which is positive. Conversely, if the negative number's magnitude is greater, the sum will be negative.
