It depends on WHAT you are referring to, if you are talking about fractions than it is the denominators( the bottom number), on a number line it is the numbers to the right of the 0 mark or the positives, other than that you need to explain more is it algebra, linear equations, fractions, unit rates, dealing with coefficients, etc.

Concentric circles. The set of whole numbers is a subset of the set of integers and both of them are subsets of the set of rational numbers.

Natural numbers are just whole positive numbers. Since whole positive numbers can represent a distance along a line, they are a subset of real numbers.
The set of integers (ℤ) is the set of the positive whole numbers and their additive opposites (the negative whole numbers).
The set of integers includes the set of whole numbers. The set of rational numbers includes the sets of whole numbers and integers.
The set is represented by Z.

Actually the set of integers is the same as the set of whole numbers since the whole numbers include negative whole numbers and zero.
The set of integers is the same as the set of whole numbers.
The set of natural numbers is a subset of the set of whole numbers. The set of whole numbers is a subset of the set of integers. So the set of integers is the largest of these three sets.
Zero (0) is in the set of whole number. The only difference between the set of whole numbers and counting numbers is that the whole numbers contain zero. {0,1,2,3...}
Apart from zero (which is its own opposite), the opposites of whole numbers are also whole numbers. You have the set of whole numbers which is also known as the set of integers.
If you mean larger by "the set of whole numbers strictly contains the set of natural numbers", then yes, but if you mean "the set of whole numbers has a larger cardinality (size) than the set of natural numbers", then no, they have the same size.
