Read the documentation.
Java Language Reference section 4.2.1

Any primitive data type has its own wrapper class. The wrapper class of int is Integer which is defined in the package java.lang. Its static attribute MAX_VALUE represents the positive largest value (2147483647)while MIN_VALUE the negative smallest value. In the same way one may obtain the maximum/minimum values for other data types, such as short, long, float, and so on.

import java.lang.Integer;
public class Max {
public static void main(String args[]){
System.out.println(Integer.MAX_VALUE);
System.out.println(Integer.MIN_VALUE);
	}
}
