2) y<x<w
I received a PM, so here's another approach.
Question stem rephrased: Is w>y?
Statement 1: x+y < 0
Statement 1, rephrased: y < -x.
w+x<0, rephrased: w < -x.
We know that w and y are both less than than the same value (-x), but we cannot determine whether w>y.
INSUFFICIENT.
Statement 2: y<x<w
Thus, y<w.
SUFFICIENT.
The correct answer is
B.
