Always negotiate is the only advice I can give you. It can be hard to negotiate when you have no experience to back up what you are asking for. But don't be afraid to ask for more.
As a new grad, you haven't got a lot of experience, and you haven't got a lot of leverage. However, you shouldn't settle for the first number that's offered. Say something like you were expecting more than that, or give a number that's higher. As long as you're professional and you don't come off as unserious, you may get some more money.
I would normally ask for an improvement on my current wages, but as this is your first job, just try to build rapport and be honest. If people relate to you then they are more likely to do the best they can for you within the limits of their power.
Always advocate for yourself
