Explanation:

To form affirmative sentences in the past continuous tense, we use the subject followed by the past tense of the verb "to be" (was/were), and then the present participle form of the main verb (-ing form).

For negative sentences, we add "not" after the past tense of the verb "to be" (was not/were not).

So, the sentences can be formed as follows:

1. At this time yesterday, I was walking in the park. (Affirmative) 2. At 8 yesterday morning, my mother was making breakfast. (Affirmative) 3. At 1 o'clock yesterday, my friends were having classes at school (the Institute). (Affirmative) 4. At 9 o'clock last night, my Dad was not watching the news program on TV. (Negative) 5. From 3 till 5 on Sunday, I was preparing homework. (Affirmative) 6. From 10 till 11 on Saturday, my Mum and I were cleaning the flat. (Affirmative) 7. At this time on Tuesday, I was playing with my younger brother (sister). (Affirmative)
