For a real number $a$, let $[a]$ denote the greatest integer not exceeding $a$. For example: $[1.2] = [\sqrt{2}] = 1$, $[-1.2] = -2$. Consider the irrational number $\theta = \sqrt{10001}$. Select the correct options.
(1) $a - 1 < [a] \leq a$ holds for all real numbers $a$
(2) The sequence $b_{n} = \frac{[n\theta]}{n}$ diverges, where $n$ is a positive integer
(3) The sequence $c_{n} = \frac{[-n\theta]}{n}$ diverges, where $n$ is a positive integer
(4) The sequence $d_{n} = n\left[\frac{\theta}{n}\right]$ diverges, where $n$ is a positive integer
(5) The sequence $e_{n} = n\left[\frac{-\theta}{n}\right]$ diverges, where $n$ is a positive integer
