In almost every other case, when a unit is named after a person, the symbol is capitalized and the word is not (for example, N for newton... for Isaac newton, where the symbol is capitalized, but the word for the unit is not).

Subtract the numbers: 5°C - 11°C = (5-11)°C = -6°C
Celsius to Fahrenheit: [°F] = [°C] × 1.8 + 32Fahrenheit to Celsius: [°C] = ([°F] − 32) × 5⁄9
