Have you been feeling hypoglycemic? Or drinking alot of fluids and hitting the bathroom alot? It's possible to be in ketosis and have a very high blood sugar, that's one way type 1 diabetics check for hyperglycemia. You also have to time the ketostix right and match the color at the time the bottle tells you, otherwise you might get a false reading.
BTW a negative reading means you don't have ketone bodies in your urine.

depends on a lot of factors:

Amount of water
timing of keto after a meal
activity level
