Default Find number closest to 0

I want to find the number in a column that is closest to 0 (number may be
positive or negative) and return a number in an adjacent cell, if no number
in the adjacent cell I want the next number that is closest to 0 that does
have a number in the adjacent cell.
eg.
offset chainage
-88.972
-2.174
22.693 215.459
24.099 231.342
93.596 355.034

I want 215.459 to be returned.
