A negative plus a negative equals a negative because the operation you're doing is equivalent to subtraction.
If you wrote down a sum "negative 3 plus negative 7" it would look like this:
-3+-7
which is the same as
-3-7
Whenever you add a negative number you are actually taking more away, and this is why a negative plus a negative equals a negative - You start with a negative number, and are taking even more away, so you will only ever end up with a negative number.
