Answer for @Thakur Jagdish.

Caster is a suspension geometry which depends upon the inclination of the kingpin or the pivot with the vertical.

If it is inclined to the vertical in forward direction(viewed in side view), then it is Negative caster.

If the kingpin is inclined to the vertical in the rear direction(viewed from side), then it is Positive camber.
