First, it is important to note that it is very unlikely that the experimental and theoretical probabilities will agree exactly. As an extreme example, if you toss a coin an odd number of times, the resulting experimental probability cannot possibly be exactly 1/2. It should be easy to see that this remains true even if the coin is tossed googleplex+1 number of times.
A negative difference could be because the number of trials was too small and, with an increased number of trials, the experimental probability would gradually increase towards the theoretical probability.
It is also possible that the theoretical model is wrong. You may have assumed that the coin that was being tossed was fair when it was not. Or there were some factors that you failed to take full account of in your theoretical model.
Or, of course, it could be a mixture of both.

Positive controls : an experimental treatment that will give the desired result Negative controls: An experimental treatment that will NOT give the dersired result.
Yes it can. E.g there may be a probability it may rain tomorrow. See, negative. Negative probability is like an opinion of your own except probabilities aren't opinions, anyway you get what I mean.
It is a real number. It cannot be negative. The sum of the probabilities of all possible outcomes of a discrete variable is 1. Similarly, the integral of the probabilities over the whole range of possible outcomes of a continuous variable is 1.
In classical physics, mass is considered a positive quantity, as it relates to the amount of matter in an object. However, in theoretical physics, concepts like negative mass have been proposed in certain contexts, such as in hypothetical scenarios involving exotic matter or in some interpretations of general relativity. Negative mass would behave differently, potentially repelling positive mass rather than attracting it. Nonetheless, no experimental evidence currently supports the existence of negative mass.
no
Probabilities can never be negative. A probability distribution is defined as follows:Every event has a probability of occurring between 0 and 1, inclusive.The sum of the probabilities of each event occurring is 1.

Yes.
When dealing with sets that have mutually disjointed (distinct) elements, IE they are under the system defined by Kolmogorov axioms, they cannot be negative. These are the probabilities normally dealt with.However, when you deal with issues in quantum mechanics etc, where each element is not distinct, then negative probabilities arise and are used as an intermediary step.The end result will not contain a negative probability when dealing with such quasiprobability systems.

Well... the probabilities should add up to exactly 1 and cannot be negative.

no
when actual flow(Qact) in pump is greater than theoretical flow (Qth) then negative slip occurs....
No; because probability can never be less than zero.
yes as in negative growth
The difference is that when you are multiplying a negative with a postive it would be negative. Lets say their both negative then it would be postive. Examples: - - = + - +=+ - - - = - - - - -= +
