Detailed Solution

When the direction of motion is opposite to the direction of velocity, the acceleration is taken as negative.
"Acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of velocity of a body." When the body travels in the direction opposite to velocity, it possesses negative acceleration. It is so because the velocity turns out to be negative because of the direction and acceleration. Also, negative acceleration can increase or decrease the body's speed depending on the direction in which the body is moving.
