I though that -1 is the ref value and the other is the relative RMSD for 2.pdb. 
Is this -1 should be positive? What is this -1? Would you give me any 
suggestions   please?


That is the value of time, normally read from a trajectory. Please note that the "xaxis" label tells you this. When no value is found (i.e. when comparing one structure to another, not part of a trajectory) there is no time value and thus g_rms prints -1.
