Why do you want to open in negative coordinates. That would take it out of the viewable screen. One option is

window.moveBy(-100,-100);

Not perfect, but it moves the browser window left and top.

when i run this then it always open with positive top and left position.

That is what it should do. Those values can not be negative since that would put the window off of the screen. Why would you open a JavaScript window no one can see?
