Well, let's take a moment to appreciate these numbers like happy little trees. Negative 8 is actually less than negative 5 because when you move to the left on the number line, you're going in a smaller direction. So, negative 5 is actually greater in value than negative 8. Just remember, in the world of numbers, every value has its own special place.
