Neither.
Quadrant.
Quadrant II (Quadrant 2) is the region of the coordinate plane (xy-plane, a graph) that is above the x-axis and to the left of the y-axis. In this quadrant, all x values are positive and all y values are negative.
Everything above the x-axis and to the right of the y-axis is called the "First Quadrant". At every point in this quadrant, 'x' and 'y' are both positive (or zero).
In general, any point that falls on the axes, is not considered to be in any quadrant. This answer is used in most HS texts since it is simple and "works." However, you can define things so that a point with a single zero coordinate will either (1) be common to the two adjacent quadrants, or (2) be part of one and only one quadrant. Here is how to do the second choice. associate the positive x-axis with quadrant I, the positive y-axis with quadrant II, the negative x-axis with quadrant III, and the negative y-axis with quadrant IV. Then what do we do about (0,0)? This is why the first answer works and if most often used. The other possibilities are only mentioned so you can see they exists.
Coordinate is the common name. Abscissa is used for the information along the X-axis. Ordinate is used for the information along Y-axis. So abscissa is the x co-ordinate, and ordinate is the y co-ordinate. As they are both negative, then the point must be located in the third quadrant.
there is quadrant 1 , quadrant 2 , quadrant 3 , and quadrant 4

Quadrant II (Quadrant 2) is the region of the coordinate plane (xy-plane, a graph) that is above the x-axis and to the left of the y-axis. In this quadrant, all x values are positive and all y values are negative.
It is a quarter of the plane: a quarter of a turn from one axis to the next.
Everything above the x-axis and to the right of the y-axis is called the "First Quadrant". At every point in this quadrant, 'x' and 'y' are both positive (or zero).
the first coordinate goes on the X axis, either positive (To the right of the Y axis) or negative (to the left of the Y axis). The second coordinate goes on the Y axis, either positive (above the X axis) or negative (below the X axis).

The word abscissa can either refer the horizontal axis (the x-axis) in a cartesian coordinate system or the actual coordinate plotted on the horizontal axis.
Third quadrant. From the origin (0,0) and on the positive x-axis. Move an arrow/line clockwise from this axis by 135 degrees. The first 90 degrees are in the bottom right (4th)quandrant. The next 90 degrees(to 180 degrees ; includes 135) will be in the bottom left (3rd) quadrant. NB From the positive x-axis ,moving anti-clockwise about the origin the angles are positive. When moving clockwise from the same axis the angles are negative.
