In statistics, the t-test is a measure of the probability of a particular event happening. It is based upon a normal (bell-shaped curve) distribution of probabilities.

A negative number result for a t-test indicates that the probability calculated is to the left if you are graphing it on the bell curve. Importantly, it does not indicate a "less than zero" chance of an event happening.
