Yes, you can consider it a relation between the points on the x-axis, and the points on the y-axis. In fact, ANY subset of R squared (in other words, any subset of the points on a plane), including the empty set, sets that contain single points, and larger sets, can be considered a relation in R squared (i.e., two sets of real numbers).
