Hold on
When both numbers are negative and you are subtracting you basically add. So -6 - (-1) = what
-6 - (-1) double negative = a + :- = -6 + 1 = ?
-6 + 1 = 5 , and I think I have to keep the sign of the larger number right?

No, I mean for the final answer, doesn't the final answer have to be negative since -6 is the larger absolute value?
Yes, the final answer is negative
