the greatest is when they are same line
but it says differnt lines

answer is 1 solution
if you have 2 straight lines, you can't make them intersect in more than 2 points without them being the same line

the defenition of a line is something that goes through 2 points, so if they go through the same 2 points, they are the same line which is not allowed
