The center of the cartesian coordinate plane is called the origin and is located at the point (0,0), where the x and y axis meet.
Given only the coordinates of that point, one can infer that the point is located 10 units to the right of the y-axis and 40 units above the x-axis, on the familiar 2-dimensional Cartesian space.
A two-dimensional surface on which points are plotted and located by their x and y coordinates.
There are two main types: Cartesian coordinates and Polar coordinates.In n-dimensional Cartesian coordinates there are n axes which are [usually] orthogonal and which meet at a single point called the origin. The coordinates of any point in the n-space are defined by the ordered n-tuple whose terms refer to the distances of the point, from the origin, along each of the axes.In n-dimensional Polar coordinates, the point is located using its distance from the origin and the angles that this radial line makes with specified lines and planes.
The quadrant where a point has a negative x coordinate and a negative y coordinate is located in quadrant 3.

Yes, the Cartesian coordinate system is routinely extended to 3 and more dimensions. In 3-d the location of each point is determined by an ordered triple, usually denoted (x,y,z), with corresponding extensions to more dimensions.
The center of the cartesian coordinate plane is called the origin and is located at the point (0,0), where the x and y axis meet.
On the Cartesian plane it is located at the coordinate of (0, -5)
Points located in the first quadrant of a Cartesian coordinate system have both coordinates ('x' and 'y') positive, i.e. equal to or greater than zero.

Yes. All you need is three mutually perpendicular axes (instead of two). To visualise this, look at the corner of a room. There will be three lines coming together at the corner: floor and one wall, floor and another wall, and the two walls. These three lines would act as your axes to describe the 3-d space of the room. The axes are usually labelled x, y and z. Mathematicians (and physicists) have no problem in dealing with coordinate systems in 4 or more dimensions.
