They do not play final Jeopardy The lowest score still gets $1.000 and the second lowest or second place winner gets $2,000 and the one closest to zero comes back to play
Wikipedia says that it happened back during the Art Fleming network Jeopardy shows and is quoted here:
"Contestants who finish Double Jeopardy! with $0 or a negative score are not allowed to participate in the game's final round, Final Jeopardy! Instead, they leave the game and receive the third place prize, which has been $1,000 since May 16, 2002"
"On at least one Fleming-hosted episode, all three contestants finished Double Jeopardy! with $0 or less, and as a result, no Final Jeopardy! round was played that day."

What happens when all three Jeopardy players have a negative dollar value after Final Jeopardy?
Only contestants with positive totals play final Jeopardy and the one remaining contestant is allowed to complete the game with the knowledge that he will win. The contestant with the lowest score is the third place contestant even if the contestants are both negative
What is the dollar amount of one column in jeopardy?
In the first round of Jeopardy!, also known as the Jeopardy! round, the total dollar value of one column is $3000 (five clues of $200, $400, $600, $800 and $1000). In the second round of play, also known as the Double Jeopardy! round, each square doubles in value, so one column equals a potential $6000 to be won (five clues of $400, $800, $1200, $1600 and $2000.) These are the minimum amounts to be won in each column, although there is the potential to increase those values if the Daily Double is found.
