Answer:

Positive.

Explanation:

When you see two negative signs directly next to each other (as shown in the given expression), it will become a positive sign:

7 - (-4) = 7 + 4 = 11

Positive is your answer.

* To be fair, even if there is only one negative sign, the answer will still be positive, however, I am assuming you are suggesting only the sign, and not the answer.
