<reasoning>
Understand the matrix negation operation
Using the Scalar Multiplication knowledge point
\[
-N = -1 \cdot N
\]
Negate each element of the matrix
Using the Scalar Multiplication knowledge point
\[
N =
\]
\[
-N =
\]
Match with the given options
We compare our calculated matrix \(-N\) with the visible options:
- The first option has the last column as \([2, -2, -20, 50, -60]^T\), which is incorrect.
- The second option has the first three rows as:
\[
\]
This matches our calculated matrix elements perfectly.
