neg x-axis is from the origin to the left.

neg y-axis is from the origin down.



There's no such thing as a negative line.

On the common Cartesian (x - y) graph, 'y' decreases and goes negative as you move downward, 'x' decreases and becomes negative as you move to the left,
and a line with negative slope tilts downward as it proceeds from left to right.
