Detailed Solution

The given numbers are 5, -7, -2, 0 and 8.
The increasing order of the integer means ordering of integers from its lowest to highest value.
Negative integers have the lowest value.
In the case of negative integers, the number with the highest magnitude has the smallest value.
0 lies between all the negative and all the positive integers.
Hence the numbers in increasing order are: – 7 < – 2 < 0 < 5 < 8.
Thus, the correct option is 2.
