I think this is probably the same bug as #7259 so I'm going to close this issue and move the discussion over to there! As a workaround, I believe this is caused by having accessible output enabled in the p5 web editor (ctrl+shift+1 to enable, ctrl+shit+2 to disable on Windows, replace "ctrl" with "cmd" for macOS.) Try disabling that to be able to use negative values in the mean time.
