Answer:  -104 and -103

===========================================

Work Shown:

x = first integer

x+1 = second integer right after x

The two consecutive integers add to -207

(first) + (second) = -207

(x)+(x+1) = -207

2x+1 = -207

2x = -207-1

2x = -208

x = -208/2

x = -104 is the first integer

x+1 = -104+1 = -103 is the second integer

Check:

-104 + (-103) = -207

The answers are confirmed.
