The correct response is:

**It is an integer but not a whole number.**

In detail:
- -9 is an integer because integers include all whole numbers and their negative counterparts.
- Whole numbers are defined as non-negative integers, which means they include 0 and positive numbers only. Since -9 is negative, it is not considered a whole number.
