Negative number becomes positive after importing

I have an excel where data is arranged by column : week 0 to 13 and row by sales rep pipeline coverage. Now that I'm in wk 1, week 0 number will be hard coded and week 1 with a formula. One of the rep had a -12 in wk 0 and a -11 in wk 1. When data gets imported to powerbi wk 0 becomes +12 and wk 1 remains as -11. Appreciate if u can advise why this happen and what should I do to retain it as -12.
Thanks in advance!

    I have made a test but couldn't reproduce your issue. The negative value shows well after published to service on my side. For troubleshooting, update the latest version of power bi desktop and clear browser cache to check if this issue persists. If the issue is very urgent, I would suggest you to create a support ticket here.
