-21, -20, -19, and -18

While that is correct it would be better to show how to get the answer.

the 4 consecutive integers would be represented by x, x+1, x+2, x+3

now the sum would be -78

so you have x+x+1+x+2+x+3=-78

Reduce and solve for x

4x+6=-78

4x=-84

x=-21

so, x=-21 then x+1 = -20, x+2 = -19 and x+3=-18
