These terms are called like terms.
For example: x and 2x are like terms.
But: x3 and 4x2 are not like termsbecause although the variables are the same, the exponents are different.

Are term whose variables are the same
They are "like" terms.
The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its terms.The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables.7x3y2 + 15xy6 + 23x2y2The degree of the first term is 5.The degree of the second term is 7.The degree of the third term is 4.The degree of the polynomial is 7.

Yes, monomials can have negative exponents. When a monomial has a negative exponent, it means that the variable or variables in the monomial are in the denominator of the fraction. For example, x^(-2) is equivalent to 1/x^2. Negative exponents indicate that the variable should be moved to the opposite side of the fraction line and the exponent becomes positive.
