The Universal blood recipient would be somebody who is AB+. This is because they carry both A and B blood types and have a positive Rh factor. This means they can receive A, B, or O blood types of any Rh factor.
On the other hand, a universal donor would be anyone with Type O, Rh negative blood, (a.k.a. O- or O-Neg). Just about anybody can receive O-neg without risking a serious reaction, which is why it is in high-demand in trauma situations where the patient might need stat blood replacement, but there isn't enough time to type and crossmatch.

is A positive blood a universal donor type?
O negative is the universal donor because when O+ve blood group is transfused to -ve blood group recipient, antibodies are produced which causes hemolysis of Rh +ve labelled blood cells. When O-ve blood is transfused to Rh +ve recipient, no antibodies are produced as donor blood has no Rh factor present on blood cells, so no transfusion reaction occurs. Thus, O -ve is universal donor.
