The vertical axis of a graph is known as the ordinate and the horizontal axis of a graph is known as the abscissa. So commonly when talking about (x,y) as a point on the graph, we refer to x value as the abscissa and y value as the ordinate.
The first or X-co-ordinate is zero all along the vertical axis aka the Y-axis.
The y axis is referred to as the ordinate axis The x axis is called the abcissa
"The x-axis or the x co-ordinate (also known as the horizontal axis of the graph or its abscissa) is the first element in a pair of co-ordinates. On the other hand, the y-axis or the y co-ordinate (also known as the vertical axis of the graph or its ordinate) is the second element in a pair of co-ordinates."
The simple answer is "the coordinates". A more pedantic answer is abscissa along the horizontal axis and ordinate on the vertical axis.
