Hii there!!!
When the speed of a moving body of the decreases, it leads to retardation and therefore, the acceleration is negative.
Examples-
1) When a moving body slows down due to any reason, the speed decreases and the acceleration is negative.
2) A cyclist is cycling and stops after 60 seconds. While stopping, the speed deceases and therefore, it leads to retardation and acceleration is negative.
