Discrepancy between Ubuntu and Windows when converting negative numbers to string

Ubuntu:

Runtime Environment:
 OS Name:     ubuntu

Test:

        [Fact]
        public void ShouldPass()
        {
            long number = -1L;
           
            Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-US");
            Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-US");
            var s1 = number.ToString();
           
            Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("sv-SE");
            Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("sv-SE");
            var s2 = number.ToString();
 
            Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;
            Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;
           
            Assert.Equal(s1, s2);
        }

On Windows everything is fine, but on Ubuntu I'm getting:

Assert.Equal() Failure
          ↓ (pos 0)
Expected: -1
Actual:   −1
          ↑ (pos 0)
   at SlowTests.Tests.Spatial.SpatialTest.T1() in /home/ppekrol/Workspaces/ravendb/test/SlowTests/Tests/Spatial/Spatial.cs:line 279

Also when '−1' is used as a header to 'Kestrel' the response status code is set to 400, but this might be expected, because this is a special character?
