Poles
No, Earth's magnetic poles are not located exactly on its geographical poles. The magnetic poles are located slightly off-axis and can shift over time due to changes in the Earth's magnetic field.
No, Earth's magnetic poles are not located on its geographical axis. The magnetic poles are actually offset from the geographic poles, with the magnetic north pole currently located in the Arctic region of Canada and drifting over time.
The term for the apparent tendency of the north magnetic pole to vary in position over time is magnetic pole drift or magnetic pole wander.
The earth rotates on its axis. One end of the axis is called the north pole (where the earth rotates counterclockwise around the pole) and the other end is called the south pole (where it rotates clockwise).
Magnetic Reversal. Several magnetic reversals have occurred over geologic time.

The axis of polarity refers to the imaginary line around which the Earth's magnetic field is oriented. It is not fixed and can shift over time due to geophysical processes in the Earth's core. The axis of polarity plays a key role in determining the orientation of a magnetic compass.
The Earth's magnetic field changes over time because that is the way that God makes it.
If you are graphing speed over a period of time, speed goes on the y-axis and time goes on the x-axis.
Although the Earth's geographic axis only slightly "wobbles" over time, the magnetic field generated by its core can move, or even reverse polarity, in response to fluid dynamics in the outer core.
The term for the apparent tendency of the north magnetic pole to vary in position over time is magnetic pole drift or magnetic pole wander.
It is usually on the y-axis because you are comparing it over time. However it can sometimes be on the x-axis.
No earth's axis is tilted, this tilt shifts over time.
By knowing the precise orientation of the rocks magnetic field, you can compare its magnetic field direction to the known direction of the magnetic field over time since the "north pole" wanders over time. The rock locked in its magnetic field when it cooled from magma.
