No, it is not. The y-intercept is the point where a function is evaluated as x=0. The point symmetrical to that is the one the same distance from the origin along the y-axis.

For example, in the function y = 3x + 2, the y=intercept is (0,2) and the point symmetrical to that is (0,-2)

Also, the x-intercept is when y=0 (solving for x) ■
