The sign of the larger number will be the sign of the answer, if you're adding them together. If they're the same size, and of different signs, the answer will be zero.
Formally, the difference between two numbers, x and y, is abs(x - y) which is never negative. If the two numbers are the same then the difference is 0 else it is positive. If you define the difference as x - y then it is positive if x > y, 0 if x = y and negative if x < y.
No, because if the positive was 8, and the negative was -4, the difference would be positive four.
No. Negative and positive are actually opposites.
no
one is positive, the other is negative
You can do this by inspection. If the second number is smaller than the first, their difference is positive. If the second number is greater than the first, then their difference is negative. If the second number is the same as the first number, then their difference is zero.
It will be negative thus -16

No, a positive minus a negative can be either or positive or a negative.
No. Negative and positive are actually opposites.
negative is below zero, positive is above
