the two particles would be attracted together. the force of the two particles would, for the most part, depend on coulombs law F=kq1q2/r2 but a general rule for the direction is that likes repel and dislikes attract. a negative sign in this equation is often misunderstood to mean a negative force, but for coulombs law a negative means it repels and positive means it is an attractive force.

The forces will be identical. They will both be repulsion forces because the objects are similarly charged.

This is assuming that the size of the charges and the distance between the objects is the same for both examples.

The force between two positive charges is repulsive - each charge is pushed away from the other. You can call this "positive" or "negative", depending on which direction you (arbitrarily) call positive.

In the absence of any other forces which would affect their motion, the forces act in the direction exactly away from the other charge.

The force between any two positive and negatively charged bodies is electrostatic attractive force.
