Question
### Mathematical Problem Statement

Given \( f:\mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R} \), \( f \in C^1 \), \( x^{(k)} \in \mathbb{R}^n \), and let there exist a symmetric positive definite matrix \( N \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n} \).

Define \( \phi : \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R} \) by 

\[
\phi(x) = f(x^{(k)} - \alpha N \nabla f(x^{(k)}))
\]

Assume \( \alpha \in \mathbb{R} \), and \( \nabla f(x^{(k)}) \neq 0 \).

1. **Proof that \( \phi(0) < 0 \). Justify your answer.**
