Can you tell me what MakeLnegative does?

MakeLcircuit isn't able to digest inductance matrixs with negative
couplings or, better, MakeLcircuit is able to, but most Spice flavours do not like K elements with negative values (e.g. PSpice, Eldo from Cadence, etc.)

So, MakeLnegative is a slightly modified version of MakeLcircuit, which uses two inductors per each matrix entry. If the coupling is negative, the inductors are cross-coupled. In this way is possible to have both positive and negative couplings. The drawback is that you are using two inductors instead of one, so use MakeLcircuit if you can.

Both positiv and negative within one result?

Example: change of M with different f's:
Freq = 1
Row 0: 0.000279364+5.17644e-009j 1.4328e-005-1.4991e-010j
Row 1: 1.4328e-005-1.50214e-010j 0.000107477+1.9596e-009j
Freq = 1e+006
Row 0: 0.000533542+3.51634e-009j 1.56346e-005+5.30262e-011j
Row 1: 1.56466e-005+5.30451e-011j 0.000227285+7.76725e-010j

I really don't get the physical explanation.
