It doesn't matter which dugout the visiting team uses. A general rule is that the home team picks which dugout they want to use and the visiting team is forced to use the opposite dugout. The location of the home/visiting dugouts are not ordered by age, league, etc. But rather, preference.

What is the bottom of the ninth?

That is when the home team is batting in the ninth inning. If the home team is ahead after the visiting team makes its three outs in the 'top' of the ninth (their turn to bat in the ninth inning) there is no bottom of the ninth because the game is over and the home team has won. If the home team is tied or behind the visiting team after the visiting team makes their three outs in the ninth inning, the home team comes to bat and it is called 'batting in the bottom of the ninth inning'.
