Put them on a number line.

Explanation:

A number line is a fast visual means to see the relative position of all real numbers. The largest negative numbers are to the left, and the largest positive numbers are to the right. Then record them in the increasing/decreasing order you prefer.

735, 287, 15.6, -8, -13.
