A question about integrability: if $a,b\geq 0$ and $a<+\infty$, $b<+\infty$, then $a-b<+\infty$?

Let be $f\in C^0(\mathbb{R})$, such that $f\geq 0$.

I suppose that $\int_{\mathbb{R}}f(t) dt<+\infty$.

Under these hypothesis, can I say that

$\int_{0}^{+\infty} f(t)\; dt-\int_{-\infty}^{0} f(t)\;dt<+\infty$ ?

I think yes, since $\int_{\mathbb{R}}f(t) dt<+\infty$ iff $\int_{0}^{\infty}f(t)dt<+\infty$ e $\int_{-\infty}^{0}f(t)dt<+\infty$.

The viceversa is not true, right?

So my question is: If $a,b\geq 0$ and $a<+\infty$, $b<+\infty$, then $a-b<+\infty$?

Thank you for the clarification!
