Before real numbers are precisely defined, $f(x+y) = f(x)+f(y)$ and $f(xy) = f(x)f(y)$... show $f$ preserves order.

Spivak Calculus, 4th ed., problem 3-17: If $f(x)=0$ for all $x$, then $f$ satisfies $f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)$ for all $x$ and $y$, and also $f(x\cdot y ) =f(x)\cdot f(y)$ for all $x$ and $y$. Now suppose ...
