A minus minus a minus will give a positive result. It will depend on the actual values. It will cause a positive movement, but still could result in a negative number. Consider these two examples. In both cases there is a positive movement but only the second results in an actual positive number:

-6 - -2 = -4

-2 - -6 = 4
