    7, - 4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If the two numbers multiply to - 28, their absolute value must both be less than 28. The numbers must also multiply into 28, meaning that the have to have a 7 and two 2s between them. This means that the numbers could be - 7 and 4, 7 and - 4, - 14 and 2, 14 and - 2, - 28 and 1, or 28 and - 1. The only set of these that add to 3 is 7 and - 4.
