TL;DR
Magnit
If we take a surface with a strong negatively charged field and place a magnet in it in a specified position so that it does not change its angle, will the magnet be repelled and move to the side?

Is the surface made of a ferrous metal (like iron or steel) or a non-ferrous metal (like aluminum)? Whether the surface is electrically charged or not should not affect the forces on the magnet per se -- You could get electrostatic forces on the metal of the magnet, but I don't think the magnetization would make a difference.

There is no magnetic force on a stationary charge. So there will not be any repulsion as described.
