for the last bit about EA being positive, why exactly can it never be negative? arent there reactions where u need to cool it down using like liquid nitrogen etc?
The temp can be negative degrees celcius (using liquid nitrogen etc.) but the activation energy can't be negative, otherwise the reaction won't 'activate'. I hope that makes sense
Yeah it's always given in some kind of format. I know that sounds weird, but if you see my other arrhenius question videos or do past paper q's you should know what I mean. good luck!

Is the Arhenius equation always given?
