Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

4 meters above. So 4 will not be negative, this eliminates C and D.

16 is definitely negative. So that eliminates C and D again.

< the number on the left of this is smaller than the right

> the number of the right of this is bigger than the left

4 is larger than -16

4>-16

B
I think it’s A because 4 is above which mean it’s positive and 16 below when negative. That means it’s greater than because the larger number eats the smallest number.
