Okay, so if Chaz has a balance of -52.00, and Willis has a balance of -59.25, this means that Willis is further into debt. Chaz would be correct to say that Willis owes more money to the bank. The further into the negatives your bank account is, the more money you owe. Willis owes the bank 7.25 more than Chaz owes.
