It is important to first understand the vocab they are using. You might already know these words, but I will write the basic definitions just to make sure. 

Quotient- a number that you get for an answer in a division problem.
Product- a number that you get for an answer in a multiplication problem.

Knowing this, which of the following statements is true?
1. The quotient of two negative numbers is negative. - FALSE ( For example, (-2/-1)=(1) ) a positive number one is our quotient.

2. The product of two negative numbers is positive. - TRUE ( the double negative creates a positive. For example, (-2×-3)= 6. The product "6" is positive.)

3. The quotient of a positive number and a negative number is positive. - FALSE ( Ex: (-1÷ 2)= (- \frac{1}{2}) The negative one half is our quotient and it is not positive.

4. The product of two numbers positive numbers is negative. - FALSE you need at a negative number that you in the multiplication in order to get a negative product.


Rule of thumb:

If you have an even amount of negative numbers present in a division or multiplication problem, the negatives will cancel each other out and create a positive outcome(quotient/product). 

If you have no negative numbers at all in a multiplication or division problem you will have a positive outcome. 

If you have an odd number of negative numbers, the outcome will be negative in an multiplication or division problem.
