Answer:

The two integers are -1 and -11

Explanation:

If you add -1 to -11, you would apply the rule of adding negatives (add then put the sign of the larger number). 11+1=12. They are both negative, so it would then become -12. -1 X -11=11 because when multiplying negatives, two of the same sign are positive
