To test the properties of a fertilizer, 15.0 g of urea, NH2CONH2(s), is dissolved in 150mL of water in a simple calorimeter. A temperature change from 20.6 C to 17.8 C is measured. Calculate the molar enthalpy of solution for the fertilizer urea
I worked through this question by finding Q = mcΔT, and then dividing Q by the moles of urea present. I can tell the process is endothermic because ΔT is negative, however my answer for ΔH comes out as negative, which would only make sense if this was an exothermic reaction. I'm not sure where I am wrong to be honest.
Here is my work:
ΔH = (150 mL × 1g/mL × 4.18 J/gC × -2.8 C) ÷ (15 g ÷ 60.07 g) = -7030.59 J/mol, = -7.03 kJ/mol
TL;DR - question asks for ΔH of an endothermic process, not sure if my answer should be positive or negative

The sign of Q depends on the perspective. The water temperature decreased because it "lost" heat. The process of dissolving urea required energy, it "gained" energy. If I give you a penny, should that be +1 or -1 penny? Well, it depends who you ask.
In your answer, you are missing a negative sign in $Delta H=−Q$ the way you start out with $Q$ from the perspective of the water.
