Answer:

Option d is right

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that at mid night temperature was 43.7 degree Fahrenheit.

If we consider 0 as the mid point separating the values between negative and positive, we find 43.7 is above 0

and negative 3.6 degree represents below 0.

At midnight, the temperature was 43.7 degrees above 0, and in the morning, it was 3.6 degrees below 0.

This would be the correct option
