If by "opposite" you mean its additive inverse, the answer is 0. If by "opposite" you mean its multiplicative inverse, for the number x, it will be (x+1/x).

The opposite of an integer is the integer that, when added to it, results in a sum of zero. In this case, the opposite of -6 is 6, since -6 + 6 = 0. The opposite integer is also known as the additive inverse.
The sum of a negative integer and a positive integer is zero only when the two integers have the same absolute value. For example, if you have -3 (negative integer) and +3 (positive integer), their sum is zero. However, in general, this situation occurs infrequently since it requires specific values. Most of the time, the sum will be a negative integer if the absolute value of the negative integer is greater than that of the positive integer, and a positive integer if the opposite is true.
sum of positive integers will be a positive integer
Yes, the sum of two negative integers is always negative.
