This is true. Always start from -1, go to -2, and then move back up to 2 from 0.
Let's make and b -1.
-1 + 2 < -1 + 3
1 < 2. Okay that works.
Let's try -2.
-2 + 2 < -2 + 3.
Let's use 0 now.
0 + 2 < 0 + 3
2 < 3
Now let's use 1.
1 + 2 < 1 + 3.
3 < 4.
Let's use 2.
2 + 2 < 2 + 3
4 < 5.
Your answer is A.)
However, if the value of a and b change, then it is false.
