When you negate the sentence, the thing being possessed needs to be in the genitive case.

Спасибо. I was obviously uncertain, but had already answered with another excepted string of words.

Technically их is the genitive form but when using preposition у, the н is added in front of их because it is difficult to pronounce the у and и sounds one after the other.

Них (they) is the same as неё (she) or него (he), тебя (you), меня (I). All of them are genitive cases :)
