One property of the addition operation is that if we add two numbers with the same sign, we get another number of the same sign. So the rule goes as this:

- positive + poisitive is positive

- negative + negative is negative

In our case the number -9590534 is negative and the number -135 is negative. Then, by this property, the addition of this two numbers is also negative.
