It's somewhere on the y-axis.
The starting point of what?When an angle is in standard position, the initial arm is the positive x-axis, and the angle is measured in a counter-clockwise direction.If this is not your question, please clarify and ask the question again. :-)
The first number in an ordered pair (of rectangular coordinates) is the distance from the origin along the x- axis. If the number is 0, then any point having this coordinate must lie on the y-axis. If the second number is 0 then the point is at the origin (0,0). If the second number is positive then the point lies on the y-axis above the origin. If the second number is negative then the point lies on the y-axis below the origin.

With the equation of an ellipse in the form (x/a)² + (y/b)² = 1 the axes of the ellipse lie on the x and y axes and the foci are √(a² - b²) along the x axis. 9x² + 25y² + 100y - 125 = 0 → (3x)² + 25(y² + 4y + 4 - 4) = 125 → (3x)² +25(y + 2)² - 100 = 125 → (3x)² +25(y + 2)² = 225 → (3x)²/225 + (y + 2)²/9 = 1 → (x/5)² + ((y+2)/3)² = 1 Thus the foci are √(5² - 3²) = √16 = 4 either side of the y-axis, but the y axis has been shifted up by 2, thus the two foci are (-4, -2) and (4, -2).

The Sun does NOT lie at the centre of an ellipse. The Sun is at one of the two foci of an ellipse. Have you ever drawn an ellipse with two pins a piece of string and pencil on a board. Insert the two pins into the board/paper. Loosely loop the string over the pins, and tighten with the edge of a pencil. Keeping the string taught with the pencil you can draw an ellipse. The positions of the two pins are the foci of the ellipse. Astronomically, the Sun lies at one of these pins. This was discovered by the Astronomer , Johannes Kepler, who gave us the law, that the Earth sweeps equal arcs in equal times about the Sun . The other focus may be thought of as a 'blind' focus. Have a look in Wikipedia under 'Johannes Kepler'. NB The plural of the noun 'focus' is 'foci'. 'Focuses' is when the word 'focus' is being used as a verb.
It would lie on the y axis
It's somewhere on the y-axis.
Perpendicular is a constraint that causes lines or axes of curves to meet at right angles.Parallel causes two or more lines or ellipse axes to be equidistant from each other.Tangent is used to cause two arcs or a line and an arc to intersect at a single point perpendicular to the arc's radius.Coincident fixes two points together, or fixes a point to a curve.Concentric causes two or more arcs, circles, or ellipses to share the same center point.Colinear causes two lines or ellipse axes to lie along the same line.Horizontal causes lines, ellipse axes, or pairs of points to lie parallel to the X axis of the sketch coordinate system.Vertical causes lines, ellipse axes, or pairs of points to lie parallel to the y axis of the sketch coordinate system.Equal forces line segments to be the same length and arcs or circles to have the same radius.Fix constrains points or curves to a specific point on the sketch coordinate system.Symmetry causes selected lines or curves to become symmetrically constrained about a selected line.(http://chongher.weebly.com/pltw-blog.html)

No, circles are not orbits of the planets. Orbits are actually elliptical paths that planets follow around the Sun due to gravitational forces. Although orbits are often simplified as circles for visualization purposes, they are more accurately described as elliptical in shape.
