Answer:

This is just a relation.

Explanation:

It is easy to see if a set of ordered pairs is a relation or a relation that is a function.

If all the points are distinct, then you just have to look at the
x-coordinates.

If all the
x-coordinates are different, then it is a function. Otherwise, it is a just a relation.

So this cannot be a function because there is at least two different points that have
x=0.
