Why is minus times plus a minus?
This is easiest to understand using small numbers and the X,Y grid using the negative numbers to the left of 0 and positive to the right. By following the normal rules of multiplication, multiplying a negative number by a positive number moves the product further to the left from zero.
How do you put negative numbers in least to greatest?
There is difference between positive and negative numbers in Maths and Arithmetic.In positive numbers we can put least to greatest from left to right where left is least and extreme right is greatest . In negative numbers its vice versa.

How would you locate the point negative 3 and positive 7 on a coordinate grid?
You simply start at the origin (0,0) and you move 3 spots on the grid to the left, to the left, to the left AND since it is a positive 7, you would have to go UP seven spots. :)
Why is the number line of a number is never negative?
A number line can have both positive and negative numbers. You can put the number line in any position, but often it is represented so that numbers to the right of zero are positive, and numbers to the left of zero, negative.
