What happens if the result is 1 or 2?
COUNTIF(A:A,"<0")
If the result is 1:
=MIN(A1:INDIRECT(E18))
=MIN(A1:A0)
If the result is 2:
=MIN(A1:A1)

It will take two cells, but here is how to do it.
In a helper cell, E18, type this formula.
="A"&COUNTIF(A:A,"<0")-1
Then in the cell where you want your answer, type
=MIN(A1:INDIRECT(E18))
