Sorry, but in your original post you said that " Null Hypothesis (H0) is that the error produces by model A is not lower than model B". If now is that model A produces less error change to alternative="less". The relevant part in the help page ?t.test is
alternative = "greater" is the alternative that x has a larger mean than y.
