A point with a zero abscissa (x-coordinate) and a negative ordinate (y-coordinate) would lie in the fourth quadrant of the Cartesian coordinate system. In this quadrant, the x-coordinate is positive or zero, while the y-coordinate is negative. This means that the point would be to the right of the y-axis (positive x-direction) and below the x-axis (negative y-direction).

A point with those properties is on the negative-y axis . . .
the boundary line between Quadrants III and IV.
I'm thinking quadrants would be the answer.
A graph with x and y coordinates has 4 quadrants, so would be a 4 quadrant graph.
It would be the negative of the negative reciprocal. And since the negative of a negative is a posivie, it is the positive reciprocal.. For example, if the slope was -3, the other would be 1/3.
If you are talking about the multiplication rules than they would be; a negative times a negative is a positive a negative times a positive is a negative
If a negative is divided by a positive, the resulting quotient will be negative. If a negative is divided by another negative, the quotient would be positive.
