/*This is a Java Program to check whether a point lies below, above or on the line. For any point t (xt, yt) on the plane, its position with respect to the line L connecting p and q is found by calculating the scalar s:
s = A xt + B yt + C
If s < 0, t lies in the clockwise halfplane of L; if s > 0, t lies on the counter-clockwise halfplane; if s = 0, t lies on L.
For example, the equation of the line connecting points (2, 2) and (4, 5) is -3x + 2y + 2 = 0. The point (6, 3) lies in the clockwise halfplane of this line, because (-3)(6) + (2)(3) + 2 = -10. Conversely, the point (0, 5) lies in the other halfplane as (-3)(0) +(2)(5) +2 = 12.*/
