If you are going down, the force acting on you would be the force of gravity pulling you downwards. This force is determined by your mass and the acceleration due to gravity (about 9.81 m/s^2 on Earth).

Why is going downstairs negative work?

As you walk down the stairs, you apply a force to keep yourself from falling down the stairs. The force is in the upward direction, but your movement is in the downward direction. If the force is in the opposite direction of motion, work done by the force is negative. Gravitational force, because it pulls down, does positive work.
