Answer 1

The text needs to be centered horizontally and vertically so rotation won't move it:

<text x="100" y="50" text-anchor="middle"
    dominant-baseline="central" transform="rotate(0, 100, 50)"></text>

text-anchor aligns the text horizontally
dominant-baseline aligns the text vertically

svg {
    width: 200px; height: 100px;
    text-align: center;
    border: solid 1px blue;
    font-family: monospace;
}

<svg>
    <text x="100" y="50" text-anchor="middle" dominant-baseline="central" transform="rotate(180, 100, 50)">
       Hello World
   </text>
    <text x="100" y="50" text-anchor="middle" dominant-baseline="central" transform="rotate(0, 100, 50)">
       Hello World
   </text>
</svg>

Answer 2

use transform="rotate(45, cx, cy)"

Where cx, cy are the co-ordinates of the center of screen (or rotation).

This is a good example
