I don't think it's a good idea / I think It's not a good idea

Beyond the literal sense which I know of / about  (that i know), I would ask, are these two forms grammatically correct to express the same meaning?

 

Both forms can be use, the first being the more common. If saying 'I think it's not a good idea' we would usually emphasise 'not' when speaking.

Oh grazie mille del suggerimento! Non l'avrei immaginato, quindi ti ringrazio tanto per questa precisazione Alex! :)

Sono entrambe corrette ma la seconda opzione non viene usata. Ed è per questo che suona un po' strana. Usa sempre la prima opzione.
