The answer depends on the context for opposition: the additive inverses are whole numbers but the multiplicative inverses are not (except in the case of -1 and +1).

What is a whole number and their opposite?

Well to correct your grammar first of all so I can read the question more understandably, what is a whole number and its opposite. A whole number is a number greater than 0. The opposite of a whole number is a negative number. A negative number is a number below 0, like you see on thermometers when its really cold sometimes. Here is a very important thing that you need to know. If you don't know this you will get it wrong on a test. 0 is not a negative number or whole number. It is just known as a place holder on the number line.
