Greatest to least means from the positive integer to the negative integer. So option A and D is definitely out. So you are left with option B and C. and the answer should be C bcos if you draw the integer scale, the negative number will go in an increasing number from zero. So its like a mirror image from the positive integer if you take 0 as the reference pt. I hope this helps!^^
