No. For example, 2 + 3 = 5 which is positive, and 2 + (-2) = 0 which is neither positive nor negative.
Well, that completely discredits my 4th grade math book that said any number that is not negative IS positive. Therefore, zero is by default a positive number.
However, the sum of two negative integers will always be negative. Adding a negative integer decreases the value of the result and given that both integers are negative implies that the sum will be negative.
"Implies"? you say. Do you have no conviction? Cannot you say 'determines' when it is obvious? "not obvious"? you say, Then does that mean the sum of 2 negative numbers MIGHT not be negative? See, this is what happens when a 5th grade question is answered by someone with superior attitude.
What else can I help you with?
When adding two negative integers - is the sum always positive?
No, always negative
Is the sum of two opposite integers always positive?
Yes, the sum of two negative integers is always negative.
The sum of two negative integers is always negative?
Yes, I guess it is.
What can you say about sum of two negative integers?
It would stay always stay negative if you're adding 2 negative integers.
What is the sum of two negative integers?
The sum of two negative integers is always a negative integer. When you add two negative numbers, their absolute values increase, resulting in a larger negative value. For example, adding -3 and -5 gives -8, which is more negative than either of the original integers. Thus, the result will always be less than both of the original negative integers.

Is the sum of two integers always positive?
No. The answer depends on the context in terms of which the numbers are considered to be opposite.
What can you say about sum of two negative integers?
It would stay always stay negative if you're adding 2 negative integers.
Is sum of two negative integers always negative and why?
The sum of two negative integers is always negative due to the commutative and associatve property. In other words, summing or adding two negative numbers results in a larger scalar negative number. ex -1 + -1 = -2
