The term whole number does not have a consistent definition...

If in referencing "whole numbers" you are referring to "nonnegative integers" then the first whole numbers are 0, 1, 2, 3.

If in referencing "whole numbers" you are referring to "positive integers" then the first whole numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4.

If in referencing "whole numbers" you are referring to "all integers" then there are no "first" whole numbers, since they would include (..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...) and extend to infinity in both directions.
