A direction is associated with velocity. So, let stone going upward is positive velocity, while stone coming downwards is negative velocity. Speed cannot tell if the stone is going upward or downward. Therefore, we can have negative velocity, but there is no such thing as negative speed.

A speed-time graph will always stay positive, while a velocity-time graph can go negative.
