yes because it is the same as adding positive (it is easier to use a numberline)

two negatives makes a positive, meaning you add. i.e. 2 - -2 = 2+2 = 4
Either.
Adding negatives? You get a negative. But if you multiply/divide 2 negatives, that's a positive.
The way you have worded your question is a bit tricky.How do you add negatives? - by adding the numbers themselves and making the answer negative.If this is not your question, please reword it and re-ask it. :-)
You add the biggest number and your smallest number but it gets confusing with negatives. but negatives are smaller then positives like........ 61 29 -12 -45 then you add.... 61 + -45
