A negative times a negative gives a positive number. Correct.

I'm guessing that the = is a typo, and judging from the fact that the + sign is on top of the = sign on the keyboard, I'd say what he/she was asking is

whether a negative + negative gives a positive answer, and the response to that is, no. negative + negative = negative.

Hope that's another insight into what you're asking, do clarify what you're trying to ask :-)
