Start at the origin. Move 2.5 units left because the x-coordinate is -2.5. -2.5 is between -2 and -3. Move 3.75 units up because the y-coordinate is 3.75. 3.75 is between 3 and 4.
Start at the origin. Move 2.5 units left because the x-coordinate is -2.5. -2.5 is between -2 and -3. Move 3.75 units down because the y-coordinate is 3.75. 3.75 is between 3 and 4.

To plot the point at the location (-2.5, 3.75), you would use the following correct set of statements:
Start at the origin. Move 2.5 units left because the x-coordinate is -2.5. -2.5 is between -2 and -3. Move 3.75 units up because the y-coordinate is 3.75. 3.75 is between 3 and 4.
This explains correctly how to plot the point in the Cartesian coordinate system. The x-coordinate is negative, indicating a movement to the left, and the y-coordinate is positive, indicating a movement upward.
