See (Graham, Knuth & Patashnik 1994), which also defines ${\tbinom {n}{k}}=0$ for $k<0$ . Alternative generalizations, such as to two real or complex valued arguments using the Gamma function assign nonzero values to ${\tbinom {n}{k}}$ for $k<0$ , but this causes most binomial coefficient identities to fail, and thus is not widely used by the majority of definitions. One such choice of nonzero values leads to the aesthetically pleasing "Pascal windmill" in Hilton, Holton and Pedersen, Mathematical reflections: in a room with many mirrors, Springer, 1997, but causes even Pascal's identity to fail (at the origin).
