To put it simply.

The ofset is measured from the centerline on the rim to the bolt face.

if the bolt face is closer to the outer rim then we have a + offset
if the bolt face is closer to the inner rim then we have a - offset.


I had Peugot offset wheels ( 15mm IIRC ) on our mondeo, that put's the total track at 40mm wider than wheels on a standard 35mm offset. It went round conrners very well but would rub the arches on the bumpy stuff.
