The "clipped" items don't show but the boundaries show. To include the
clipped portions, Join the plot, do clipping manually, or use
ListLinePlot

Table[
 ListPlot[
  Table[x, {x, -.13, .13, .01}],
  Axes -> True,
  Filling -> 0,
  FillingStyle -> {Red, Darker[Green]},
  PlotRange -> {Automatic, yRange}],
 {yRange, {Full, {-0.1, 0.06}}}]

Table[
 ListPlot[
  Table[x, {x, -.13, .13, .01}],
  Axes -> True,
  Filling -> 0,
  FillingStyle -> {Red, Lighter[Green]},
  Joined -> True,
  PlotRange -> {Automatic, yRange}],
 {yRange, {Full, {-0.1, 0.06}}}]

Table[
 ListPlot[
  Table[Clip[x, {-0.1, 0.05}], {x, -.13, .13, .01}],
  Axes -> True,
  Filling -> 0,
  FillingStyle -> {Red, Darker[Green]},
  PlotRange -> {Automatic, yRange}],
 {yRange, {Full, {-0.1, 0.06}}}]

Table[
 ListLinePlot[
  Table[x, {x, -.13, .13, .01}],
  Axes -> True,
  Filling -> 0,
  FillingStyle -> {Red, Darker[Green]},
  PlotRange -> {Automatic, yRange}],
 {yRange, {Full, {-0.1, 0.06}}}]
