a = -5 ;
b = -1.670000000000000 ;
r = (b-a).*rand(1000,1) + a;

The randi function generates random integer values in a specified range. Nothing about the function limits it to only being able to produce random positive integer values.
allPositive = randi([2 10], 1, 5)
allNegative = randi([-10 -2], 1, 5)
mixedSigns = randi([-6 6], 1, 5)
If you want to generate normally distributed or uniformly distributed numbers, see the documentation pages for the randn and rand functions respectively.
