Math riddle involving line y=x rotating into cone?

Can someone either explain or point me to a visual example of this?

If you have an x-y axis and the line y=x and you rotate this line
along the y-axis, how do you get an upside-down cone? I can't picture
the result of that and it's been perplexing me for a very long time..

Thanks
Phil
