No, the negative deduction you see on your Deductions summary in TurboTax does not appear on your tax return and will not affect your final result.
The negative figure is the amount that would be backed out of your total state and local taxes to arrive at the allowed deduction for line 5e of Schedule A.
It appears on the Deductions summary if you entered more than $10,000 in state and local taxes, even if you end up using the standard deduction.
