If you have not studied complex numbers, then the answer is as follows:
The rules of multiplication for real numbers are that
a positive times a positive is a positive, and
a negative times a negative is a negative.
[Also, 0 times 0 is 0].
The upshot of all that is the square is never negative. And so, the answer is that there is no real number whose square is -62.
If you have studied complex numbers then you should not be asking such basic questions! Still, the square roots of -62 are the complex pair ±7.874i where i is the imaginary square root of -1.

What is the square root of a negative number plus the square root of a negative number?
Nothing. You cannot have a square root of a negative number. The square root of negative one is called i, but i is an imaginary number. It does not exist and does not follow the properties of real numbers. (For example, if a and b are positive, then the square root of a times the square root of b is the square root of ab. But the square root of -7 is not the square root of 7 times i.)
