(N/A) $(i)$ In the point $(-3, 5)$,the abscissa ($x$-coordinate) is $-3$ (negative) and the ordinate ($y$-coordinate) is $5$ (positive). Points with a negative $x$ and a positive $y$ lie in the second quadrant.
$(ii)$ In the point $(-5, -3)$,the abscissa ($x$-coordinate) is $-5$ (negative) and the ordinate ($y$-coordinate) is $-3$ (negative). Points with both negative $x$ and $y$ coordinates lie in the third quadrant.
