Solution:
There are
18 negative terms from -1 to -18
33 positive terms from 1 to 33
And a zero
Thus, 18+33+1=52
IMO E
Hope this helps

Inclusive terms between any given range is given by \(L - F + 1\)
Where, \(L\) is Last term, and \(F\) is First term
Here, n = \(33 - (-18) + 1 = 33 + 18 + 1 = 52\)
Hence, option E
