out of bounds memory access

[Stephen Tu]

what is supposed to happen if i do the following out-of-bounds negative
memory access:
xor $r0,$r0,$r0
lw $r1,-12($r0)
disp $r1,0

my program just goes back to instruction 0x0000- is this how it responds
to errors? do we have to handle any errors?

You can assume the code your CPU is running is being nice, so no, you
don't have to worry about cases like this.
