The plugin Microsoft Word File Import/Export (Question Format) uses a Word table as a template for each question type as shown in the screenshot below. By default, the incorrect answer options in the template are set to 0, but you could change the template to set them to -25 instead (as I have done in this example). Then each time you create a new question using the template, the negative values will be already filled in, and you just have to type in the question stem and answer options. The template is just a Word template file (.dotm) so is easy to edit. Without changing the template itself, you could also just create one question, change the grades in the table, copy that table, and paste it as many times as you want questions. (Note that I developed this plugin.)

The changing theme suggestion was by way of diagnosing the problem only. Another alternative is to inspect the raw HTML code generated, it should look something like the following. If you can see the "input" element for each of True and False, then it's a formatting issue.
<label class="form-check-inline form-check-label  fitem  ">
    <input type="radio" class="form-check-input " name="answerid" id="id_answerid_980" value="980">
    <p dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">False</p>
</label>
<label class="form-check-inline form-check-label  fitem  ">
    <input type="radio" class="form-check-input " name="answerid" id="id_answerid_979" value="979">
    <p dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">True</p>
</label>
