Answer:
I HOPE THIS IS RIGHT.
Explanation:
The acceleration due to gravity, g, is in a direction toward the ground. The same is true of the force of gravity, F = mg. Both g and F can be considered vectors, which are geometric representations indicating both magnitude and direction.

The acceleration due to gravity is ALWAYS negative. Any object affected only by gravity (a projectile or an object in free fall) has an acceleration of -9.81 m/s², regardless of the direction. The acceleration is negative when going up because the speed is decreasing.
