On a coordinate plane, a curved line, labeled f of x, with a minimum value of (negative 1.9, negative 5.7) and a maximum value of (0, 2) crosses the x-axis at (negative 2.5, 0), (negative 0.75, 0), and (0.75, 0), and crosses the y-axis at (0, 2). Which statement is true about the graphed function f(x)?

F(x) < 0 over the intervals (–∞, –2.5) and (–0.75, 0.75).
F(x) > 0 over the intervals (–∞, –2.5) and (–0.75, 0.75).
F(x) < 0 over the intervals ( –2.5, –0.75) and (–0.75, ∞).
F(x) > 0 over the intervals ( –2.5, –0.75) and (0.75, ∞).
