There is no predetermined scale. You choose the scale so as to best represent the data.

I'm not sure I understand your question, but if the point (10,6) is plotted 2 squares to the right of the origin and 3 squares up, then the horizontal scale interval is 5 and the vertical scale interval is 2. Each horizontal space represents 5; each vertical space represents 2.
If the y axis is part of the Cartesian coordinate system, then the other coordinate is zero.Their x-axis value is 0.
It is somewhat subjective what the most important part of a graph is. It is very important that you label each axis.
Along the bottom and up the left hand side for most graphs.In the general case the x-axis runs horizontally through the origin, and the y-axis runs vertically through the origin. In each case the axis runs from minus infinity to plus infinity.Well if your talking about on a coordinate plane or a set of perpendicular lines the y axis goes up and down and the x axis goes sideways (if you want it simple).
Graphing is an important part of mathematics. However, all the names of each axis and planes can be hard. The x-axis is also called the horizontal axis.
