    +n = the range of numbers from zero to infinity

    -n = the range of numbers from negative one to negative infinity

    You've explained what +n means, but not what +n favourability means.

    That’s the gap between favorable and unfavorable.

    Take 100 people.

    60 find you favorable 40 find you unfavorable

    You have a +20 favorability.

    Now take 100 people

    30 find you favorable 70 find you unfavorable

    You have a -40 favorability.

    As for the definition, “Favorable” could be just asking “would you vote for x?” Yes or No.

    That part I am not 100% certain on. I am not an expert at polling.
