If they're inclined, yes.

An inclined plane is any surface with an upward slope away from a horizontal line. A wedge fits this description, however it could also be classified differently as having a declining slope from a parallel horizontal surface.
The bottom of the bathtub is inclined. It leads towards the drain. They make it so that water will go straight to the drain and wont just settle. It would then take force to keep the water up the incline (away from the drain). That followes the definition of an incline plane.
The floor of a bathtub is designed as an inclined plane to allow water to flow towards the drain efficiently. This incline helps gravity pull the water downwards, preventing it from pooling in one spot. The slight slope also aids in preventing slipping accidents by allowing excess water to drain away, reducing the risk of standing water causing a hazard.
It intersects the x-y plane along the y-axis, and is at 45° angle to the x-y plane. If you rotate the axes so that x is horizontal, z is vertical, and y is pointing away from you, it will look like the line y = x in the xy coordinate system. See below z | | | |45°angle |/ y----------------x (y-axis is pointing away from you)
There can be a slope to the floor. If fact; when tile is used outside there should be enough grade (slant or slope) to allow moisture/water/snow to drain.Slant - verb (used without object) to veer or angle away from a given level or line, especially from a horizontal; slope.Slope - verb (used without object) to have or take an inclined or oblique direction or angle considered with reference to a vertical or horizontal plane; slant.Grade - (also called slope, incline, ... for engineering and aesthetic design factors.
