Not necessarily. There are many ways to write a basic equation with a negative answer. For example, -3-4 = -7. Here 4 is a positive number but because you subtract 4 to 3 or take away 4 from 3 being a negative number and so you get a negative answer. Another example is 6+(-9). There are a couple of ways you can resolve this. My method is to subtract 9 from 6 which gives you 3 and simply add a negative sign.
Let me know if you'd like more examples. Hope this helps!! Sorry if it is confusing I can explain you in a more simpler way if you'd like.
