=SUMIF(A1:A100,"0") will sum the poisitve values
=SUMIF((A1:A100,"<0") will sum the negative ones

Default Excel - Adding positive or negative numbers in a column

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A15)*(A1:A150))

A1:15 represents whatever your range is.

I like sumproduct because it is intuitive, showing you your conditions, ie
greater than zero or positive.
