How can add a yellow fill when the cell contains a negative value?

Here's a portion of my spreadsheet:

-369.77
30.98
11.48
40.96
-9.04
-54.56
-145.61
-56.56
-243.13
-54.31
-13.27
36.73
-190.88
36.73
37.48
-99.09
-58.04

Conditional Formatting will do that.

Excel 2010:
Home tab > Conditional formatting > Highlight cell rules > Less than > Format cells that are LESS THAN: > 0 (zero) > With 'down arrow' > custom format > Fill > 'select yellow box' OK > OK.
