When you create a chart and, for example, there is a square between mercury and venus, showing a square in the box, and beside it there is an A or S signifying that it is either separating or applying, but also there is always a number above that A or S that is either negative or positive... I understand that the number itself is the orb of application or separation.... but what does the negative mean?

It's the deviation from the true angle of an aspect. For example, an exact trine is 120deg. If it were to say -3 then the aspect would be forming at 117deg. Thus having an orb of 3. If it were to say +3, then it would form at 123 degrees, also having an orb of 3.
