The transformation rule that moves a point (x, y) to (-x, -y) reflects the point across the origin. This transformation can be understood as a rotation. Specifically, it is a rotation of 180 degrees about the origin.

To summarize:
- The transformation (x, y) to (-x, -y) will be **rotated 180 degrees**.

This does not involve dilation, translation, or other movements; it simply repositions the point directly opposite its original location in all quadrants of the coordinate plane.
