I undrstand the below:
a callable bond with less negative convexity (compared to a callable bond with more negative convexity) has greater price appreciation when rates decline.
But why does the below occur:
a callable bond with less positive convexity (compared to a callable bond with more positive convexity) has greater price appreciation when rates decline.
Are the positive and negative convexity having the same effect on the callable bond?

The second part’s wrong.
Where’d you read that?
So should it be:
a callable bond with less positive convexity (compared to a callable bond with more positive convexity) has less price appreciation when rates decline.
