Trouble moving a 2D sprite up along the y-axix

I have a 2D ship sprite in top view and I would like to move it up. But I’m having trouble with it. The ship is not moving at all.. Can anyone help me figure out what I’m doing wrong or link me to an answer for reference? I’ve looked around but couldn’t find anything.

Here’s copy of the error message I’m getting:
