No. -71 is less than -37.

Think of a spaceship that is about to launch into space! The ship has a countdown to launch. We can imagine the countdown going 5,4,3,2,1, Blast off! (which equals 0). If we were now to keep counting down we would continue -1,-2,-3 and so on. Each following number is less than the previous one.

So, for this reason, -71 is less than -37. If we continued counting down we would reach -37 first!
