|dw:1354650843240:dw| Honestly I have no clue, it seems like a vague question. Zeroes are usually points where the function intersects the x axis, so I'm assuming they are asking, does the graph intersect the x-axis at -1 at the leftmost point? The answer would seem to be false, if that is what they're asking.
