A 'tag' is something small that we add to something larger.
Question tags are very common in English. They are short questions at the end of statements. We use them when we are not sure of something, if it's true or not, or when we want to confirm something.
We use the auxiliary verb from the statement and the appropriate subject pronoun. If there isn't an auxiliary in the statement, we use do / does (present simple) or did (past simple).

To sum things up, a positive statement is always followed by a negative tag, and a negative statement is followed by a positive tag.
