B.

Point n is negative and point m is negative.

C.

Point n is positive and point m is positive.

D.

Point n is positive and point m is negative.
huh so whats the answer
Based on the description provided, point n is located halfway between 0 and the first segment to the left of 0. Since the number line extends from -4 to 4, this means point n is negative.

On the other hand, point m is located halfway between the third and fourth segments to the right of 0. Since the number line extends from -4 to 4, this means point m is positive.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. Point n is negative and point m is positive.
