A negative of a vector represents the direction opposite to the reference direction. It means that the magnitude of two vectors are same but they are opposite in direction.

For example, if A and B are two vectors that have equal magnitude but opposite in direction, then vector A is negative of vector B.

The answer is A 

In the depletion layer, electrons combine with holes producing charge density so that region is depleted of charge carriers  but it has charge density .

Conclusion: Neutral but still having non zero charge density .

Any vector directed in two dimensions can be thought of as having two different components. The component of a single vector describes the influence of that vector in a given direction.
