When I have the negative battery cable disconnected and then I reconnect it, the horn gives out a quick beep. Is that normal?

I believe this is part of the Anti Theft system. I can't remember if mine had one or not...

Do you have a car alarm (hooked to the horn)?
My alarm always gives a chirp when I reconnect power.

Yes, it has an alarm system that sounds the horn upon intrusion.
But I would not call the sound a chirp. It is a loud short beep of the horn when the battery cable is reconnected.

Chirp, beep, whatever. It depends on whatever noisemaker your alarm activates. Powering it up closes the relay for a fraction of a second.

Same thing happened when I put a new battery in and just hit the unlock button on key fob.
