How can I modify this formula =sumif(b5:d5;"<0";(b5:d5) so that if b5+c5+d5 is a negative number I will get (what I want) the actual negative sum and not just the sum of the negative numbers? B5 is a positive number.

SUMIF totals just some of the values, depending on the conditions you specify. But you say you do not want this. Don't use SUMIF!

What do you want if the value is not negative? Let's imagine you want zero in this case. Try
     =MIN(SUM(B5:D5);0)

I trust this helps.
