The solution of $8x + 1 \equiv 5$ (mod $12$) is $x \equiv a$ (mod $m$) for some positive integers $m \geq 2$ and $a < m$. Find $a+m$

The solution gives both A and M. I suggest you read over the solution, heureka did an amazing job on it :)

Well, it seems the solution is that $m$ is nonnegative and is always a multiple of $3$. And $a = -1$, would this mean the answer would be $2$ or $5$ or $8$ etc.. ? Which of these is correct?
