  • Given, x > 0, y > 0.
  • So, the values of x and y are less than 0, that means, they are negative integers.
  • If we divide a Cartesian plane with the x-axis and y-axis, we get four quadrants.
  • 1st Quadrant : (+,+)
  • 2nd Quadrant : (-,+)
  • 3rd Quadrant : (-,-)
  • 4th Quadrant : (+,-)
  • Since the values of x and y are both negative, so (x, y) is located in the 3rd Quadrant.

Hope you could get an idea from here.
