A man who has blood type A negative blood and a woman who has heterozygous Type B positive blood have children. What are the phenotypes and genotypes of the f1 generation?

I'm assuming the male has homozygous AA genotype because the question points out that the female is heterozygous B postive.

Thus, the male contributes only A- gametes, while the female contributes 1/4 B+, 1/4 B-, 1/4 O+ and 1/4 O-

So the genotypic ratios are:
1/4 A-B+
1/4 A-B-
1/4 A-O+
1/4 A-O-

and the phenotypic ratios are
1/4 AB positive
1/4 AB negative
1/4 A positive
1/4 A negative

Odd question as we usually don't use F1 for humans...
Also you don't say if man has homozygous or heterozygous A.
A type can be AO or AA must be --
B type can be BO or BB and +- or ++
do you mean heterozygous for both for woman homozyg for both for man?
AA vs BB would have only AB offspring
-- vs ++ would have only +- offspring
so children would be AB+-
