The first quadrant has a positive value for both x and y. The second quadrant has a negative value of x and a positive value of y. The third quadrant has a negative value for both x and y. The fourth quadrant has a positive value of x and a negative value of y.
If the point (x, -3) is in the fourth quadrant, x will have a positive value. If the point (-2, y) is in the second quadrant, y will have a positive value.
Therefore, (x,y) which has both positive values will lie in quadrant I(Option A) _________________

Points (x, -3) and ( -2, y), not shown in the figure above, are in quadrants IV and II, respectively. If xy≠0xy≠0, in which quadrant is point (x, y) ?
Given: (×, -3) is in iv quadrant, means x is positive and (-2,y) is in ii quadrant, means y is positive. Neither of x nor y is 0. Hence, (x,y) is in I quadrant.
Answer A.
(A) I
(B) II
(C) III
(D) IV
(E) It cannot be determined from the information

If it were not given that the points are in quadrant IV and I respectively, then (x,-3) could be in either III or IV quadrant and (-2,y) in either II or III; hence (x,y) would be in III quadrant. Correct? Bunuel
