Oh honey, let me break it down for you. The expression -x represents the opposite of x, which is usually a negative number because it's moving in the opposite direction on the number line. But hey, if x happens to be 0, then -x would be 0 too. So technically, -x doesn't always have to be negative, but most of the time it is.
