To find the coordinates of point B' after translating point B, we need to apply the translation transformation: moving 2 units to the left and 4 units down.

The coordinates of point B are given as (-1, 4).

1. **Translate 2 units to the left:**
- This means we subtract 2 from the x-coordinate.
- New x-coordinate: \(-1 - 2 = -3\)

2. **Translate 4 units down:**
- This means we subtract 4 from the y-coordinate.
- New y-coordinate: \(4 - 4 = 0\)

Therefore, the new coordinates of point B' after the translation are:

\[
B' = (-3, 0)
\]
