It depends on what you do with the negative and positive. If you multiply or divide a positive number and a negative number, then the answer is negative. If you add or subtract a positive number and a negative number, the answer could be negative or positive depending on the numbers involved. If you put a negative sign in front of a positive number, the result is a negative number. If you put a positive sign in front of a negative number (like +(-7)), the result is still negative.
In math in general MEAN means average. an average of say, five events would be divided by five and form the average reading. Mean has no negative connotation in Math. By the way, in Algebra, two wrongs do make a right- a Negative times a Negative produce a positive product. I know it sounds crazy went to summer school TWICE for Math, no Einstein, but Mean in Math means average or even Normal like Greenwich Mean Time!
