Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

Any point is of the form (x,y)

The first coordinate is x which tells us to go either left or right depending on whether x is negative or positive.

Example: (-2,3) means we go left 2 units

Another example: (5,7) means we go to the right 5 units.

The starting point is the origin where the x and y axis meet up.
