Answer:

An object which moves in the positive direction has a positive velocity.  If the object is slowing down then its acceleration vector is directed in the opposite direction as its motion .  If velocity and acceleration have opposite signs, you slow down. Negative velocity = You move backwards. Negative acceleration - You slow down or you go faster in the backwards direction
