Any positive number x has two square roots: one positive and one negative. For example, +3 and -3 are both square roots of 9. Using a brilliant leap of imagination, mathematicians decided to call the first of these the positive root!
We call this Conventional Current Flow, where imaginary positively charged particles are repelled away from a positive charge and attracted towards a negative charge.The reality is that electrons are actually flowing through the conductor. Electrons are negatively charged particles and flow from negative to positive. It's just easier to think of a positive current flowing than a negative current.

You can consider any direction as positive, and the opposite direction as negative. However, in this case it is customary to call a gain "positive", and a loss "negative".
I would call that positive.
A balance of negative and positive charges is called neutrality. This occurs when the total negative charge is equal to the total positive charge, resulting in a system that is electrically neutral.
You can assign positive numbers to east and negative to west - or you can do it the other way round. Which direction you call positive is really quite arbitrary. In Google Maps for example, east appears as positive.
