YES, YES, YES ... It does matter.
The RED clip goes to the battery (+) terminal under the plastic cap and the BLACK clip clips to a bolt (any clean grounded bolt) on the engine or a strut.
There are other things that could cause your problem ... like a bad starter solenoid.
I would seek help from someone who had done it before and be very careful if you decide to "jump" start it. If it were me, I would hook up a battery charger and let it charge for a couple of hours. Then disconnect it and try again to start it with the key.
There are very sensitive electronics on these cars that could get "cooked" if you make a mistake.
