Microprocessors use binary, so all they have is ones and zeros (♪♫...and sometimes we ran out of ones...♪♫) Sorry.
The chip notes negative numbers by the leading bit
If the chip can handle 8 bits if information, they use the first for the sign (0 is positive, 1 for negative) and the remaining 7 bits for the number from 0 to 127.

What shows a correlation which may be positive or negative between two sets of data?
I believe you are asking how to identify a positive or negative correlation between two variables, for which you have data. I'll call these variables x and y. Of course, you can always calculate the correlation coefficient, but you can see the correlation from a graph. An x-y graph that shows a positive trend (slope positive) indicates a positive correlation. An x-y graph that shows a negative trend (slope negative) indicates a negative correlation.
