I don't have a strong opinion on this either way; I would just imitate
what GNU patch would do, which would probably be to show the offset as-is,
except that it flips the sign if it is being run in reverse with -R
option.
A bigger question I would actually care _more_ about is if this should be
on by default without -v. We usually do not allow fuzz by default for
safety, and we do warn loudly when -C reduces the context and we actually
need to use it to match the preimage.
In any case, here is an update to match what GNU patch seems to do more
closely.

Subject: [PATCH] apply -v: show offset count when patch did not apply exactly
When the line number the patch intended to touch does not match
the line in the version being patched, GNU patch reports that
it applied the hunk at a different line number, with how big an
offset.
Teach "git apply" to do the same under --verbose option.
