They are all on the border of two quadrants (the xandy axes are the borders).

Explanation:

(0,4) is on the y-axis and above the x-axis, so it is between the first and second quadrant (IandII)
(0,4) is on the y-axis and below the x-axis, so it is between IIIandIV
(4,0) is on the x-axis and to the right of the y-axis, so it is between IVandI
(4,0) is on the x-axis and to the left of the y-axis, so it is between IIandIII

Usually these border-cases are assign to the lower quadrant of the two, so the answer would be I,III,I,II
