It depends what you consider to be "blood". Whole blood, collected directly from a volunteer blood donor, is rarely used in modern transfusion medicine. Rather, whole blood is separated into blood components, predominantly red cells, platelets and plasma. Each component may then be transfused to a patient for specific needs.

AB negative red cells or whole blood may be only transfused to AB recipients (Rh positive or negative). AB, Rh negative platelets mat be given to any blood type recipient. AB plasma (Rh is of no importance for plasma), considered the "universal" plasma, may be given to any blood type recipient and is always in extreme shortage.

No. AB is the universal receiver not donor. Only someone with AB can receive AB. O type on the other hand, is the universal donor so O could be donated to AB, or any other blood type.

The O blood type is the "universal donor". It can donate to A,B,AB,O as long as it matches with the - and +. (ex: O+ to AB +/ O- to AB-), and so forth.
