the x-axis goes horizontally (like this _______ ) and the y-axis goes vertically (like this | )
the y-axis is vertical, and the x- axis is horizontal
Zero is always plotted on the Y and X axis, known as the origin.The Y axis is vertical, like a straight line or pole for better reference, the X axis is horizontal, like the horizon.
If you're talking about a graph then here's your answer... There are to axis's the x axis (horizontal) and the y axis (vertical). So your talking about the vertical scale so since a graph is shaped like an L the vertical part would contain the scale (numbers along the side) so that you can read a bar graph easier
If one of the two variables is independent (or explanatory) then it goes on the horizontal axis. Otherwise you do whatever you like.
