How would you specify it?

You may use function `goto-char' as linear movement.

You could as well use `goto-line' and then (goto-char (point-at-bol))
and after `forward-char' to go to some column of the text, this
reminds me as coordinate with X and Y.

(defun goto-x-y (x y)
  "Goto to line X, char Y."
  (goto-line x)
  (goto-char (point-at-bol))
  (forward-char y))

(goto-x-y 10 20)
