Solution

The correct option is B

-,-


Any point in the third quadrant is below the x-axis and to the left of y axis. Hence both x and y coordinate will be negative.

Consider any point in the third quadrant, example (-2,-1) we observe the signs are negative for both the abscissa and the ordinate.
