C Correct answer
Explanation

As the point is (8, 0)         (8, 0) $\leftrightarrow $ (x, y) Here, x-coordinate is 8 which is greater than 0 and y-coordinate is 0, and when y-coordinate is 0, then the point lies on xaxis. As the x-coordinate is greater than 0, the point (8, 0) lies on positive xaxis.
