This means the scalar product depends upon the magnitude of A, magnitude of B and the cosine value of the angle θ between them. If one of them is negative, the scalar product can be negative. Now the cosine value can be negative; for example cos180° is -1. Therefore, in case the angle between the two vectors is 180°, the product is negative.
