The correct answers are:
___________________________________________________
[A]: " (0, 0) " ; AND:
___________________________________________________
[C]: " (-2, -1) " .
___________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:
___________________________________________________

[A]: " (0, 0) " ; is correct;

Since, when "x = 0" and y = 0 :

"0 > - 4 " ; which is correct.
___________________________________________________
[B]: "(2, 1)" is incorrect, since:

when "x = 2" and "y = 1" ;

" 1 > 6" ; is incorrect.
___________________________________________________
[C]: "(-2, -1)" ; is correct;

Since, when "x = -2" and y = -1" ; then:

"-2 > -6 ; which is correct.
___________________________________________________
[D]: " (-5, -1) " ; is INCORRECT.

since when "x = -5" and "y = -1 ;

then: -1 > 6 ; which is INCORRECT.
