Check whether two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) lie on same side of a given line or not

Given three integers a, b and c which represents coefficients of the equation of a line a * x + b * y – c = 0. Given two integer points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2). The task is to determine whether the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) lie on the same side of the given line or not.
Examples:

Input : a = 1, b = 1, c = 1, x1 = 1, y1 = 1, x2 = 1, y2 = 2
Output : yes
On applying (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) on a * x + b * y – c, gives 1 and 2 respectively both of which have the same sign, hence both the points lie on same side of the line.
Input : a = 1, b = 1, c = 1, x1 = 1, y1 = 1, x2 = 0, y2 = 0
Output : no

Approach : Apply both the points on given line equation and check if the obtained values belong to same parity or not.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ program to check if two points
// lie on the same side or not
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to check if two points
// lie on the same side or not
bool pointsAreOnSameSideOfLine(int a, int b, int c,
                        int x1,    int y1, int x2, int y2)
{
    int fx1; // Variable to store a * x1 + b * y1 - c
    int fx2; // Variable to store a * x2 + b * y2 - c
 
    fx1 = a * x1 + b * y1 - c;
    fx2 = a * x2 + b * y2 - c;
 
    // If fx1 and fx2 have same sign
    if ((fx1 * fx2) > 0)
        return true;
 
    return false;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int a = 1, b = 1, c = 1;
    int x1 = 1, y1 = 1;
    int x2 = 2, y2 = 1;
 
    if (pointsAreOnSameSideOfLine(a, b, c, x1, y1, x2, y2))
        cout << "Yes";
    else
        cout << "No";
}

{

    int fx2; // Variable to store a * x2 + b * y2 - c
 
    fx1 = a * x1 + b * y1 - c;
    fx2 = a * x2 + b * y2 - c;
 
    // If fx1 and fx2 have same sign
    if ((fx1 * fx2) > 0)
        return true;
