One way:

A1:A100 = codes
B1:B100 = values

Enter this array formula** in D1:

=IF(ROWS(D$1:D1)<=COUNTIF(values,"<0"),INDEX(codes ,SMALL(IF(values<0,ROW(codes)-MIN(ROW(codes))+1),ROWS(D$1:D1))),"")

Copy down until you get blanks meaning the data has been exhausted.

** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER)
