Answer

The location of a point in quadrant I is changed to Quadrant III and the location of a point in quadrant II is changed to quadrant IV. The location of a point in quadrant III is changed to quadrant I and the location of a point in quadrant IV is changed to quadrant II.

Work Step by Step

When both coordinates are multiplied by a negative number, the signs of x and y-coordinates are reversed. Therefore, the location of a point in quadrant I is changed to Quadrant III and the location of a point in quadrant II is changed to quadrant IV. The location of a point in quadrant III is changed to quadrant I and the location of a point in quadrant IV is changed to quadrant II.
