C is correct

Explanation:

Given: (1,-6) rotate 270° counterclockwise rotation about the origin.

For 270° counterclockwise rotation about the origin.


(x,y)\overset{270^\circ}{\rightarrow}(y,-x)


(1,-6)\overset{270^\circ}{\rightarrow}(-6,-1)

(1,-6) lie in IV quadrant.

After 270° counterclockwise rotation about the origin
