You can probably find complete answers to these questions by using the forum search feature.

To allow negative values in the object editor, you can either shift-double-click when you're editing the field, or set the editor to Allow Negative Values. Then you simply have to change the aura's targets from Friend to Enemy.

Abilities, by default, skip levels. If you have 0 in the skip field, it will use the default interval defined by the Advanced>Gameplay Constants.

Advanced > Gameplay Constants > Hero Attributes - Abilities Level Skip (Default)

Just set it to what you want.

If it's 1, you can learn the spell at level 1, 2, 3, etc.
If it's 2, you can learn the spell at level 1, 3, 5, etc.
If it's 3, you can learn the spell at level 1, 4, 7, etc.

It can of course go higher, but those were just examples.
