As a rule the product of an ODD number of NEGATIVE SIGNS is always NEGATIVE

An the product of an EVEN number of NEGATIVE SIGNS is always POSITIVE
Then the following statement is the right one:
Negative, because the product (-7)(-2) is positive, and the product (-5)(1) is negative and the product of a positive and a negative number is negative
