Answer 1

Location method is deprecated I think. Look in javadocs and check out this post, it may help you Java Swing - JLabel Location

Answer 2

When execute this code, all labels show properly based on parameters that you define on setBounds function.

When use setLocation

lbl2.setLocation(20, 20);

method on last label object, it will display label according to x-axis & y-axis on your frame. It will works accordingly parameters that defines in setLocation method.

lbl2.location - This method is deprecated. So it may cause error or not display label properly.

If you use any other location method then explain which one you are using.
