Mar 14 at 7:29 comment added Vojtěch Strnad In elliptic curves over finite fields there simply aren't any points below the X axis. The point coordinates can only take values between 0 (inclusive) and p (exclusive).
Mar 7 at 8:13 comment added user2334659 Clearly the first sentence of my question was a lie - I need to do more study. Given what you mentioned about points on the curve being modulo p therefore they can't be negative, then how do we distinguish points above and below the x axis if not by calling them positive or negative?
