Graphing points and functions usually involves the Cartesian coordinate system. Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system#Two-dimensional_coordinate_system for some good graphics showing you what's going on. The third picture from the top at that site shows a Cartesian graph with the four quadrants labeled: the upper right quadrant is I, upper left II, lower left III, and lower right IV. To graph (-2, -1), you would go 2 left and 1 down from the center, which is in quadrant III.

1. (3,-4) is to the right of the y axis, below the x axis, Quadrant IV. 2. (3,0) is on the x axis, to the right of the y axis.

quadrant III, since both x and y are negative.
