'Introduce Constant' intention with negative numbers

That is the 'Introduce Constant' quick fix of the 'Magic number'
inspection, right? Could you please submit a JIRA request about this issue?

The 'Introduce Constant' intention doesn't highlight the '-' in front
of negative numeric literals, so when actioned, it converts only the
digits to a constant name prefixed with '-'. You can't fix this by
highlighting the whole number before actioning it, as it still
ignores the '-'.

The 'Introduce Constant' refactoring, on the other hand,
correctly refactors according to the selection text includes the '-'
or not.

The code generated by the intention will function correctly at
runtime, but is misleading in that the constant declaration is of a
positive number, not the negative intended.

Jira #5257 has been submitted for this problem.
