Solution:
In a XY plane, there are 4 quadrants with which each of them having different signs.
The First Quadrant has both positive abscissa and ordinate
The Second Quadrant has a negative abscissa and a positive ordinate
The third Quadrant has both negative abscissa and ordinate
The fourth quadrant has a positive abscissa and a negative ordinate.
According to the question, condition is imposed only on ordinate. It is given that abscissa can be non zero but ordinate is negative.
