Mean sea level (MSL) which is the average level of the sea. Determinig "sea level" is a very complex measurement. All other altitude measurements in aviation, in one way or another, are referenced from the mean sea level.

Can the value of altitude be negative?
According to Wikipedia:"As a general definition, altitude is a distance measurement, usually in the vertical or "up" direction, between a reference datum and a point or object." ['down' is measured as depth.]If you're discussing flying altitude, it probably cannot be negative, because the reference point is the ground.In a geography which is below sea level, you could describe the altitude as negative, but more properly, you'd describe the elevation not the altitude.(The Mojave Desert and New Orleans, Louisiana, in America both have elevations below sea level.)
