Can a silicon diode be forward biased if the anode voltage is negative?

To be forward biased any diode (e.g. vacuum tube, crystal, junction, point contact) must have its relative anode voltage more positive than its cathode voltage. If the absolute anode voltage is negative but the cathode voltage is even more negative, then the diode will be forward biased. But as your question made no mention at all of the cathode, I cannot tell if this is the case or not.


The grid in high-vacuum triode is usally kept negatively charged with respect to the cathode so that the electrons may be?

If this is for your Penn-foster test i can tell you one thing is that the the answer isn't "accelerated toward the anode".
