The lower the better my friend, the lower the better.

When you need to make a save, the game randomizes a number between 1 and 20. If this number is over your saving throw number, then you pass the save.

As you might imagine, having a saving throw that is a minus number makes it quite difficult to fail saves.

Good response!

Also, certain higher level spells demand you save at -2, -4 or even -5, making it more difficult to make your saves (example, to avoid confusion, you must save at -2. If your save Vs Spells is 8, you would need to roll 10 or above to avoid being confused)
