Ternary operator array sort check. Having trouble understanding what does it to

Can you guys help me understand how does this code check if inputed array sorted by ascending, descending or not sorted at all? I tried to understand it myself for two days but with no success

Here is the code

const arraySortInfo = (inputArray) => {
  if (inputArray.some((element) => typeof element !== "number")) {
    return "Some elements are not numbers";
  }

  if (
    inputArray.every((element, index) =>
      index > 0 ? element >= inputArray[index - 1] : true
    )
  ) {
    return "Array sorted by ascending";
  }

  if (
    inputArray.every((element, index) =>
      index > 0 ? element <= inputArray[index - 1] : true
    )
  ) {
    return "Array sorted by descending";
  }

  return "Array isn't sorted";
};

const a = [5, "abc", 10, 1];
const b = [4, 10, 14, 25, 25, 50];
const c = [150, 132, 80, 40];
const d = [15, 26, 10, 23, 85];

I specifically lost in this lines of code and the same one for descending

if (
    inputArray.every((element, index) =>
      index > 0 ? element >= inputArray[index - 1] : true
    )
  ) {
    return "Array sorted by ascending";
  }

I tried to sit and write down everything on paper but so far I thought that I understood what it does with ascending, but then I tried to figure out descending check the same way and it didn’t add up so I must be wrong at something.

Here is how I understand it on ascending example

inputArray[4, 7, 10 for example].every((element, index) =>
 first time     index 0 > 0 ? element 4 >= inputArray*//4,7,10 = 2 indexes//*[index */0/* - 1] : true
 *so if 4 >= 1 it return true*
 second time    index > 0 ? element 7  >= inputArray*//4,7,10 = 2 indexes//*[index */1/* - 1] : true
 *if 7 >= 2 returns true*
 third time     index > 0 ? element 10 >= inputArray*//4,7,10 = 2 indexes//*[index */2/* - 1] : true
 *if 10 >= 1 return true*
*and if every time this was true it will return "Array sorted by ascending"*

It worked here for me. But it didn’t work the same way for descending numbers so I must be wrong. Maybe I’m wrong about (element, index) inputs?
