s and t cannot be the same points because in the question it says s and t are two different numbers.
Also according to st 1 the diff between s and 0 is the same as the diff between t and 0. this is possible only if the numbers are same but with different signs (eg, 2 & -2, 11&-11) SuFF
Statement 2 just says that 0 lies between s and t i.e. if one of them is positive the other is negative. it doesn't tell us anything about the values of s & t - INSUFF
