Does scientific notation become negative when going forward or backward?
The scientific notation is negative if the number itself is negative and not otherwise. Thus the scientific notation for -2500 is -2.5*103. Perhaps what you were thinking was when the exponent, or power of 10, is negative. This is negative when the magnitude of the "ordinary" number is smaller than 1. Thus 0.25 = 2.5*10-1 So, if the number itself is less than 0 and its magnitude is less than 1 (ie -1 < x < 0), then both are negative. For example, -0.0025 = -2.5*10-3
Is positive 1 greater or less than negative 5?

Is negative 7 greater than negative 1?
no.. -7<-1 i.e "negative 7 is less than negative 1" ------------- negative numbers like -1 are less than 0, making any number after -1 even lower than 0 making the lower up negatives like -1 greater than higher number negatives like -7
