Default changing the location of the x axis labels

Hello, I'm trying to make column graphs by using excel 2002. The
problem is, my y axis values have some negative numbers, so the x axis
labels overlap with some of the columns. Is there anyway to relocate
the x axis labels while keeping the category x axis crossing at zero?
Thanks!

Double click on the axis. On the Patterns tab, for Tick Labels, choose the
Low option. The axis will remain at zero, but the labels will move to the
bottom of the chart.
