Question
The image displays a graph of a quadratic function, specifically a parabola. It is plotted on a Cartesian coordinate system with the x-axis ranging from -10 to 10 and the y-axis ranging from -10 to 10.

### Key Features of the Graph:
1. **Parabola Orientation**: The parabola opens upwards, indicating that it is in the standard form \(y = ax^2 + bx + c\) with a positive leading coefficient.

2. **Vertex**: The graph shows two intersection points plotted below the parabola. The vertex of the parabola is at the point (0, -3), suggesting the lowest point of the graph along the y-axis.

3. **Intercepts**:
   - **Y-intercept**: The parabola crosses the y-axis at (0, -3).
   - **Another Point**: Additional point noted on the graph is (-1, -4), which lies below the vertex.

4. **Axes Labels and Scale**: 
   - The x-axis and y-axis are labeled, and each unit along both axes is marked. The scale is consistent, showing increments of 1.

This image serves as a visual representation of the quadratic function's properties, highlighting its vertex, y-intercept, and orientation.
