At 9:00 a. M the outside temperature was - 9 degrees fahrenheit by noon the temperature was - 12 degrees fahrenheit jorge said that it was getting warmer outside. Is he correct? Explain

He is not correct. Even though 12 is higher than9 it is in the negative, meaning that on a number line it is going left.

If the 12 was positive, it would be warmer, but since its in the negative like the 9 he is incorrect and, in fact, it is colder.
