I don't recall the exact details in Android, but in almost all graphics APIs
the Y position for text is either the [baseline] (bottom of a letter 'o' or
'n') or [baseline + descent] (bottom of the letter 'g' or 'y'). In other
words, (x,y) for bitmaps is top-left, (x,y) for text is lower left.
A quick experiment would tell you whether it's the baseline or baseline +
descent.
