Final answer:

The new point after reflecting (-10, -1) over the x-axis would be (-10, 1), with the y-coordinate sign changed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student has asked what the new point would be for (-10, -1) if it were reflected over the x-axis. The reflection of a point over the x-axis in a coordinate plane involves changing the sign of the y-coordinate while keeping the x-coordinate the same. Thus, the new point after reflecting (-10, -1) over the x-axis would be (-10, 1).
