Hello Sally,
The first sentence is just more polite and considerate by not using the word "wrong" directly with its negative implication and negating the word "right" that sounds positive. It makes the criticism mild and adds an aesthetic refinement to the statement.

The meaning is the same.
"I think it's wrong." is more direct (/straight).
"I don't think it's right." seems to be a little more tactful (/discreet).
