    Answer: yes

    Explanation: Assuming a it's moving 20m/s in the west direction and slowing down at a rate of - 5m/s² (deceleration), the negative sign would imply the westward direction because - 5 west is the same thing as + 5 east. So, the boat is moving 20m/s west direction and accelerating at 5m/s² east direction.

    Other examples of these are: Cars and and tricycles.
