$- 1$ $-1$

Explanation:

${(- 1)}^{7}$ $(-1)^7$
= ${(- 1)}^{2} \times {(- 1)}^{2} \times {(- 1)}^{3}$ $(-1)^2times(-1)^2times(-1)^3$
= $1 \times 1 \times (- 1)$ $1times1times(-1)$
= $- 1$ $-1$

OR you could think that 1 to the power of anything will be 1 and for the negative sign, when the power is odd, the answer will include a negative and when the power is even, the answer will not include a negative
