This is a correct usage of "upside down", and gives the same context as that used by Horatio in this phone call. To "stand upside down" is to stand on one's head, with one's feet in the air. Horatio thinks this will cure Philip's hiccups. Example: "Look at that yogi standing upside down! His face has gone blue!".
This sentence is grammatically incorrect. It should read "Could you take this plate down stairs for me please?". "Downstairs" is the lower level of a building: the opposite of "upstairs".
This sentence uses the expression "upside down" correctly. Here, we are describing something which is positioned "incorrectly" so that what should be the top is at the bottom, and what should be the bottom is at the top! Example: "You should never hold a baby upside down, or its head will explode".
This does not make sense. The sentence should read "I'm going down town this afternoon: do you want to come?". "Downtown" is a US term referring to the centre of a city. It is the opposite of "uptown", which usually refers to a "chic" area of town!
