Answer:

A positive.

Explanation:

Let's replace these with numbers.

-1 · 2 · (-3)

A negative times a positive will always equal a negative. So, we have:

-2 · (-3)

Any numbers with the same sign (positive or negative) multiplied by each other will equal a positive. Since we have two negatives and we're multiplying them, our result will be a positive number.
