Is the sum of two integers positive or negative?

If for the two integers a + b = c, a is larger than zero and b is larger than the absolute value of the first number, then c is always positive. If a is smaller than zero, and b is larger than the absolute value of the second number, then c is positive. If a is smaller than zero, and b is smaller than the absolute value of the second number, then c is negative.
