For all spontaneous change (iron to become rust) the condition for the sponteneity of the reaction MUST be negative

iron rust is exothermic therefore the free energy is negative

The value of Gibbs is negative because rusting is a spontaneous reaction, and one of the factor for a reaction to occur spontaneously is that gibbs energy must be negative.
