The interviewer wants to hear that your references will positively describe you. Think about the constructive things your references have said about you in the past. Be complimentary of yourself - now is not the time to be super humble.
If you have past performance reviews or letters of recommendation from your references, review them before your interview. You will be better prepared to answer the question if what they wrote is fresh in your mind. It is also good to have copies for the interviewer if they would like a copy for their file.

My references would describe me as a hard-working person who brings a positive attitude to the workplace. I have received yearly audits in which I had received good feedback from my supervisors who have said they never get any complaints from anyone who has worked with me.
