They are not necessarily positive. If you're talking about scientific/mathematical calculations of time, then only half are positive ;).
If you are talking about how we in america culturally refer to time in day to day speech and thought, I think that's a question having to do not with time itself, but with the society that refers to it as important only when perceiving it in one direction; forward. (subjectively, of course, compared to other, older, societies around the world)
In many other cultures when telling time in day to day speech it is common to say "H minus mm" or "without mm, H" as would be closer to a direct translation. Those would be considered a negative interval, moving backwards, while telling time.
To better answer your question, I would need clarification on what you mean.

Can a line plot have intervals?
Yes, but most of the time we use intervals of 1.
Which the function's values become very positive or negative numbers?
The positive regions of a function are those intervals where the function is above the x-axis. It is where the y-values are positive (not zero). The negative regions of a function are those intervals where the function is below the x-axis. It is where the y-values are negative (not zero).
What is time intervals?
Time interval is the period of time between the start and end of an activity.
Is second smallest unit of time?
No the second is broken down into smaller intervals of time.
Does a linear graph have to increase at the same number of intervals each time?
No
Can a line plot have intervals?
Yes, but most of the time we use intervals of 1.

What is thenature of distance time graph for the motion of an object moving with a constant speed?
The distance-time graph for an object moving with a constant speed is a straight line with a positive slope. This indicates that the object is covering equal distances in equal intervals of time.
Why are the eons and eras not equal in length?
Geologists have divided Earth's history into a series of time intervals. These time intervals are not equal in length like the hours in a day. Instead the time intervals are variable in length. This is because geologic time is divided using significant events in the history of the Earth.
What does we use to measure short intervals time?
The shortest is Planck time.
What does regular interval mean?
Intervals are a space or a period of time between things. Regular intervals would be a period of time between things that is always constant; the time stays the same(:
What 15 degree intervals devide the earth into 24 hours?
Degrees longitude. The intervals divided this way are the time zones.
What is time intervals?
Time interval is the period of time between the start and end of an activity.
What is the measurement for interval?
Time! A change between two points in time is the interval, sometimes referred to in engineering terms "delta."-InThree21
What is time granularity?
Time granularity refers to the level of detail or precision at which time intervals are measured or represented. A fine time granularity means that the intervals are small and precise, such as seconds or milliseconds, while a coarse time granularity means that the intervals are larger and less precise, such as days or weeks. The choice of time granularity depends on the specific needs of the system or process being analyzed.
Compares trends over even time intervals?

How do you order the geologic time intervals to longest to shortest?
The geologic time intervals from longest to shortest are eon, era, period, epoch, and age. This hierarchical sequence represents the largest divisions (eons) to the smallest subdivisions (ages) of Earth's history.
