Please, as you have it in the other two patches, can the rule title be
reproduced in such patches? As it stands, without mentioning the doc
version either, someone finding this later on may be left with a pretty
wide ambiguity as to what's meant.

Why "non-negative"? A variable of type "int" holding a non-negative value is,
aiui, well within the bounds of the rule here. It's unsigned types where the
use of unary minus would constitute a violation. You actually say so ...

... here, just that this one's getting blurred by using "quantity" when
"type" is meant. Imo we need to be pretty precise here, using terminology
that's used by the standard or the Misra rules, and not anything "coming
close enough" in someone's perception.
