Grammar questions about "What do we have left?" Can it be considered as a shorter form of "What do we have which/that has left?" But then I think it could also be "What do we have which/that HAVE left", what do you think? --- My question is, can we see "left" as a reduced relative clause? Which relative clause would it be?

What do we have left? Can it be considered as a shorter form of "What do we have which/that has left?" But then I think it could also be "What do we have which/that HAVE left", what do you think? "What do we have which has left? ??? "What do we have that has left? ??? What do we have /that HAVE left ??? What do we have that HAVE left ??? Sorry not clear what any of your examples mean. Can you give some context?
