Comment (by mmezzarobba):

 You probably know that, but just in case: it is not strictly true that you
 cannot use the interval Newton method and must switch to bisection when
 the slope interval contains zero. Another option is to interpret 1/[-a,b]
 as a kind of ”projective interval” containing ∞ (which gives rise to two
 disjoint complex intervals after intersecting with the previous estimate,
 so you'll still need to deal with several pieces).
