Another option is 'lmList()' in the nlme (or lme4) package:

fm <- nlme::lmList(MULTDV~TIME|as.factor(SUBNUM), data=TEMP2, na.action=na.omit)
neg <- names(which(sapply(fm, coef)["TIME", ] < 0))

xyplot(MULTDV~TIME|factor(SUBNUM), data=TEMP2, type=c("p","r","g"),
       col.line="black",subset = (factor(SUBNUM) %in% neg))
