negative staining is when the micro-organism on slide is not stained.. instead the rest of the material on the slide gets stained and the organism stands out prominently unstained.. this occurs because that organism has a thick capsule around it which is non-stainable with that stain.. example is pneumococci staining with India ink.

Because it is a Gram-negative bacterium and can be stained with Gram-negative stain.
No, a coverslip is not typically used during negative staining. In negative staining, the specimen is mixed with a contrast dye that stains the background rather than the specimen itself, allowing the cells to stand out against the dark background. This technique is often performed directly on a microscope slide without a coverslip to preserve the morphology and details of the specimen.
Gram negative bacteria are typically rod-shaped (bacilli) or corkscrew-shaped (spirochetes). They have a double cell membrane composed of an inner and outer membrane, which contributes to their staining properties in the Gram staining technique.
A negative stain is a type of staining technique used in microbiology where the background surrounding the specimen is stained dark, leaving the specimen colorless and transparent. This method is particularly useful for visualizing certain microbial structures that may be difficult to see using other staining techniques.
Negative staining is also known as indirect staining because the stain does not directly interact with the specimen.
The classification of cyanobacteria is based on Gram staining, which is typically negative.

The acid-fast staining result for the sample is positive.
Because it is a Gram-negative bacterium and can be stained with Gram-negative stain.
Bacteria .
Because the cell wall repels the binding of the negative stain therefore the cells do not stain. Because of this the background is stain with the dye used and the bacteria remain colorless. Basically your staining the background, that is, you are not directly staining the cells.
Those which show pink colour in gram staining are gram negative bacterialike E.coli
