Solution Steps

To determine whether -16 is less than or greater than -15, we compare the two numbers on the number line. Since -16 is to the left of -15, it is less than -15.

Step 1: Comparison of Numbers

We need to compare the two numbers: \(-16\) and \(-15\). On the number line, \(-16\) is located to the left of \(-15\).

Step 2: Determine the Relationship

Since \(-16\) is to the left of \(-15\), we can conclude that \(-16 < -15\). This indicates that \(-16\) is less than \(-15\).

Final Answer

The correct relationship is \(\boxed{<}\).
