The displacement, velocity and acceleration can be negative as they are vectors.

Explanation:

Vectors have both magnitude and direction while scalars have only magnitude. Vectors can be negative. It shows that the direction of motion of an object is in opposite direction of motion.

Path length is scalar quantity.

Displacement can be negative.

Distance is positive always. It is scalar.

Speed is a scalar quantity.

Velocity is a vector quantity. It can be negative.

Acceleration is a vector quantity. Negative acceleration is called deceleration.

Hence, displacement, velocity and acceleration can be negative as they are vectors.
