I.Q. stands for intelligence quotient. There are all sorts of instruments used to measure an individual's I.Q. One used in very young children is the "Draw-A-Man" test. Supposedly, if you ask a young child to draw a person, the child with a higher I.Q. will give the person more detailed features. (e.g. Eyebrows, Ears, Knees, etc)

A:

IQ tests can be administered to children as young as two years old. They are at their most accurate when given to preschool and grade school children; starting with high school, their accuracy drops off substantially.

This is because what's being measured is how much better at problem-solving the child is than other children their age, as compared to a baseline adult (usually considered to be around 18 years old). So the closer one gets to that baseline, the less predictive --and therefore, less accurate -- the test becomes.

Is 140 a good IQ score for a 9 year old?

Age doesn't matter when determining if an IQ score is good or not. 140 is well above average. (The average score is 100.) This is the IQ of an intellectual. If this score is from an online test, I would advise you to not believe it. These tests are not accurate. You need to take a real test if you want to determine your actual IQ.
