Two points.
(I) Shaded region is in the quadrant where x>0 and y<0.
so only (9,-7) and (7,-9) are left.
Now the line passes through (10,10) and (0,0), so all points on the line have x=y.
the slope is lesser in the shaded region, which is above the line. Here the value of y should be lesser than the numeric value of x without the sign..
So |9|>|-7|
Answer: A
