This is the rules excerpt:
Some pumpable cards increase the card's Attack Value but lower its Body:
for example, +2/. Pumping such a card until the Body drops to 0 kills
the card. Trash a card with a modified Body of 0 after the card inflicts
damage.

Since there is no mention of negative body, I am assuming you must stop
at 0.
But I don't see anything specific about pumping cards below zero.
