The negative blood comes from the rhesus scale. So type A negative blood means you are rH negative. This poses a potential problem during pregnancy if the mother is rH negative and the father is rH positive. In that case the mother will receive a rhogam shot during pregnancy and right after birth to prevent the potential mixing of blood between mother and child from causing a serious reaction in the mother's body.

As someone with type O- blood, you are a universal donor. This means that ANYONE who is in need of a blood transfusion can accept your blood. The downside to this is that it works the reverse if you are in need of a transfusion. You can only accept blood from donors who are also type O-, a small percent of the population.
