Work Step by Step

Using geogebra graph: $\bf z^2=x^2+y^2$ which is a cone along z axis in both directions now use the formula Curve(x,y,z,parameter,start,end) to input: $\bf Curve(t cos(t),t sin(t),t,t,-2 π,2 π)$ which gives a cone shaped spiral from $z=-2\pi$ to $z=2\pi$ You can also sketch by hand by noting that as t increases it traces an expanding counter-clockwise spiral that extends upwards at the same rate as it expands radially. This shows that the parameterized curve $r(t)=$ lies on the cone $z^2=x^2+y^2$.
