agree  Philippe Bodet: Je penche aussi pour cette réponse : pour une banque, on est "en positif" ou "en négatif". Par contre, la même banque parlera de "solvabilité" lors de l'étude d'un prêt, etc ...

On parlerait plutôt d'une personne en "état de solvabilité"


Explanation:
"Solde positif" ne peut être applicable à une personne physique. On parlerait plutôt d'une personne dont l'actif est supérieur au passif ou qui présente une garantie de solvabilité, donc une personne en état de solvabilité.
