well, sorta (this question just came up recently).
The environment variables XDRIVER_HEIGHT and
XDRIVER_WIDTH control the size. If there's a certain
size that you always prefer, you can put these
in your ~/.grassrc file.  Here's mine:

GISDBASE: /home/soils/h/mccauley/project/data
LOCATION_NAME: indiana
MAPSET: mccauley
PAINTER: ppm
DIGITIZER: none
XDRIVER_HEIGHT: 500
XDRIVER_WIDTH: 650

otherwise you can write a shell script to set the size
and then start the monitor.

Now, as far as location, I'm not too sure.
