Wouldnt X-Intercept equal 0 dollars made?

I think I got it, is this correct? Part A: The x-intercept is equal to 0 dollars profited, such as f(x) = 0. The maximum value of the graph shows the max profit we have made/can be reached. Profit is increasing on the interval (0,4) and decreasing on the interval (4,8). This represents that profit is increasing when selling price ranges from 0 dollars to 4 dollars, then decreases when selling price is 4 dollars to 8 dollars
