In a table do you have to list the x and y coordinates in order (largest to smallest)?

Answer:

No. (maybe)

Explanation:

For expressing the corresponding values of x and y, any ordering will do. It is usually convenient for the user of the table if there is some recognizable order (so that a value can be found without searching the entire table). The usual expected order is by x-value, smallest to largest.

Some problem statements may specify that the table entries be listed in order. In those cases, yes, the table values must be listed as specified. (This accounts for the (maybe) answer, above.)
