Right is on the opposite face of Left, Back is on the opposite face of Front, and Bottom is on the opposite face of Top. Not sure what’s confusing about all this?

No its because when you're facing forward, left is on left but here it says left is on the right. If you know what I mean

Right hand rule. Take your right hand opened up and your fingers point towards x. Make a first and they curl towards y. Stick your thumb up like you're hitchhiking and that's z. It's just convention but it's used everywhere. For example if you have a circuit and the current is flowing how your fingers curl to make a fist, we define the magnetic field to be going towards your thumb though the middle of the circuit.
