Points P, Q, R, S, T, V and W are distinct points arranged in a plane as follows: points P, Q and R lie on one line, and points S, Q and T lie on another line. If STV and PQW are triangles, what is the greatest possible number of points that can lie on one line?

(A) Three
(B) Four
(C) Five
(D) Six
(E) Seven



I think 6, if we join both lines then point W and V will not be on the line rest all six can be on same line

I guess you are confusing lines with line segments.
Whereas line segments can be joined together, a line extends infinitely in both directions.
So joining both lines makes no sense.

Each line has 3 points already. To form the Triangle it has to have one more point on the other line , making 4 point on each line.
