Most numbers represent an amount. Positive numbers represent above zero. Zero is the only number that does not represent an amount. It means nothing. When you go lower than nothing, you are in the negative numbers. Negative numbers represent absent values pretty much.

How I would use them in every day life:

I would use positive numbers to represent... maybe something I'm trying to get at a store. Ex: 4 bananas

I would use negative numbers to... maybe look at the temperature. Ex: -16 degrees Fahrenheit. Negative numbers are in temperature all the time.

Hope this helps! (^-^)
