Android margin top negative value in ScrollView

Question

I had tried to give negative marginTop value to the child inside scrollview. But it was not aligning as expected. It was hiding below layout which is above the scrollview. I want to achieve the design which i mentioned in Screenshot. Particularly the logo which was floating 75% in banner and 25% below banner. Could anyone give your ideas for that.

I was using android support design library latest.
