For instance:
data = RandomReal[{-1, 0.5}, {17, 10}];
dataEval = Mean /@ data;
Pick[data, dataEval, _?Positive]
{{-0.449982, 0.2009, 0.199709, 0.235786, 0.150056, 0.178905,
0.424249, -0.000534571, -0.742857, 0.202645}, {0.464844,
0.292049, -0.174897, 0.0626164, -0.515538, 0.424741, 0.452547,
0.254448, -0.574943, -0.48209}}
or
Pick[data, Mean /@ data, _?Positive]
{{-0.449982, 0.2009, 0.199709, 0.235786, 0.150056, 0.178905,
0.424249, -0.000534571, -0.742857, 0.202645}, {0.464844,
0.292049, -0.174897, 0.0626164, -0.515538, 0.424741, 0.452547,
0.254448, -0.574943, -0.48209}}
