Positive would be more magnification, and negative would be less magnification.

No.

M > 1 indicates that the image is bigger than the pre-image (and on the same side of the centre of magnification);

0 < M < 1 indicates that the image is smaller than the pre-image (and on the same side of the centre of magnification);

-1 < M < 0 indicates that the image is smaller than the pre-image (and on the opposite side of the centre of magnification);

M < -1 indicates that the image is larger than the pre-image (and on the opposite side of the centre of magnification).

M = 0 means the image is point-sized and at the centre of magnification.

M = 1 means the image coincides with the pre-image.

M = -1 means that the image is the same size as the pre-image and on the opposite side.
