Using a coordinate plane in a JFrame

Co-ordinatesStart here from the TOP LEFT SIDEscreen, because as you increase the value, Xyou will go to RIGHT SIDE, although as you increase the value, Yyou will move DOWNWARDS. Here is a small example of the program so that you understand it a little better, just click on it anywhere.

public class DrawingExample
{
    private int x;
    private int y;
    private String text;
    private DrawingBase canvas;

    private void displayGUI()
    {
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("Drawing Example");
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

        canvas = new DrawingBase();
        canvas.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter()

            public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me)
            {
                text = "X : " + me.getX() + " Y : " + me.getY();
                x = me.getX();
                y = me.getY();
