This answer depends on who you are asking some people say it flows from negative to positive and others say its the other way around but really it doesn't matter that much because normal 60Hz AC changed direction 60 times a sec

anything will flow from higher property to lower property...

for eg:-water flows from higher level to lower level. in scientific terms, water flows from higher potential energy to lower potential energy.

in electricity there is a term electric potential.

so +ve charge will flow from higher electric potential to lower electric potential.

Electric current flows from a high elecric potential to a low electric potential in a circuit. It is also opposite to the direction of the flow of electrons.
