An absolute value can not be negative.
If the absolute value of the negative is bigger than that of the positive, then the answer is negative. If the absolute value of the negative is the same, then zero. If the absolute value of the negative is smaller, then positive. Absolute value is the value ignoring the sign.
That is how the absolute value is defined. For x < 0 the value of x is negative (by definition). Therefore, the value of negative x is positive (negative of a negative). So abs(x) = -x when x < 0
