I asked because I needed help...how do you expect me to answer and explain

Yes.  You are expected to show your work.  The only work to do here is to compare the two temperatures and decide which is greater.

Both temperatures are on the same scale.  Which is greater?  -3 or -5?

You examine the evidence and demonstrate your understanding of the numberline.  Is -3 closer to 0 or is -5 closer to 0?
