Step-by-step explanation:
A.
To negate, you multiply it by -1
so for any number a it's opposite is -1(a) = -a
for negative (I just wanted to point out), -1(-a) = a
B.
Keywords "gain" and "from now" indicate positivity
Keyword "downstream" indicate negativity
C.
Negative Numbers < Positive Numbers
Imagine a number line
<--10--9--8--7--6--5--4--3--2--1-0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10->
Notice, then bigger the number in negative the smaller (in value) it is
